About Suppose it is true after all? WHAT THEN?

John Baldessari’s artwork titled “Suppose it is true after all? WHAT THEN?” was created in 1967 and is associated with the Conceptual Art movement. This figurative piece presents a contemplative and thought-provoking question, characteristic of Baldessari’s exploration of language and its implications in visual art.

The artwork prominently features bold, handwritten text on a flat, textured background. The upper portion poses the question “Suppose it is true after all?” in a cursive black font, rendered against a muted orange field. Below, the query “WHAT THEN?” is emphasized in large, white block letters with a subtle shadow effect, creating a sense of urgency and significance. The choice of contrasting colors and font styles draws the viewer’s attention and engages them in an introspective dialogue, encouraging contemplation of the underlying implications of truth and consequence.
