"John Cage: The Zen Ox-Herding Pictures" brings together fifty never-before-seen watercolour images from renowned artist and composer John Cage, revealing the powerful influence of Zen in his life and work. These pieces were originally created on paper towels at the 1988 Mountain Lake Workshop as Cage experimented with the flow and tone of colours from his brush as he prepared for larger works. Authors Stephen Addiss and Ray Kass unite them here in patterns both planned and dictated by chance, the same methods by which Cage himself composed his later works. Ray Kass and Stephen Addiss provide introductory essays, discussing their experience with the works and the artist himself. They also explore fragments of Cage's poetry and his many statements about Zen practice, providing a fascinating lens through which the images seem to become mysterious echoes of the centuries-old "Ten Ox-Herding Paintings" - images about searching for, finding, and returning from the path to enlightenment.

先有画，再由作者配上了John Cage的文字。喜欢这个ox herding的过程的呈现。I saw art not as something that consisted of a communication from the artists to an audience but rather as an activity of sounds in which the artist found a way to let the sounds be themselves.
