The artwork, titled “Li Tai Po,” was created by Nam June Paik in 1988. It belongs to the Neo-Dada art movement and is categorized as an installation piece.
The artwork consists of a grid arrangement of 21 small television monitors. Each monitor in the artwork displays various images, creating a constantly shifting visual experience. The overall frame mimics traditional East Asian decorative art, with intricate patterns surrounding the television displays. The vibrant screens form a juxtaposition against the muted tones of the surrounding frame, thereby embodying a blend of modern technology and traditional aesthetics. Nam June Paik’s work is emblematic of the Neo-Dada movement, known for its innovative use of media and conceptual depth.
