These Nam June Paik sculptures are made of cleverly positioned vintage TV sets. The Korean artist usually arranges the series of TV sets to depict an adorable robot, but that hasn’t stopped him from getting more creative with his palette.
Nam June Paik also creates other sculptures including a bed, a dog, a cello of some sorts and even a provocative bra for his cello player. That certainly puts a different twist on watching the ‘boob tube.'
