Bird be lookin' at some prominent wo'k fum dis art movement - "Pink out uh a Co'na' from No. 1 uh Decemba' 19, 1963" by Dan Flavin. 'S coo', bro. Flavin, who got wasted in 1996, wo'ked primarily in flourescent and neon lights and dun did "installashuns" mo'e dan he dun did two dimensional pieces.

Dis wo'k be one uh his earlia' pieces and be pencil and crayon on colo'ed sheet. It's obvious dat he had some great sense uh propo'shun and wuz upside de top wid some ruler. Ah be baaad... Dey dude real loved straight lines.
