// NY + Paris = Art by Nam June Paik is a playful and thought-provoking lithograph that explores the concept of art through simple, almost childlike drawings. Created in 1999, the composition features a series of sketched elements, including smiling faces, question marks, and a heart symbol, with handwritten text that reads NY + Paris = Art. Paik, a pioneer in multimedia art, often blended humor and philosophical ideas in his work. Here, he suggests a formula where two iconic cities combine to create something greater—art. The minimalist and whimsical style conveys a sense of spontaneity, inviting viewers to interpret the playful symbols and perhaps question the universal language of art itself.

What is Found Object?
A found object is a term used to describe a man-made or natural object, or a fragment of one, that an artist discovers or purchases and keeps for inspiration or as a work of art. The artist may also modify the object or incorporate it into a collage or assemblage, transforming it into a new piece of art.
