Etching // Life Fly Lifes Flies by Bruce Nauman is a thought-provoking etching created for the portfolio celebrating Leo Castelli's 90th birthday. The artwork features text that reads LIFE FLY and LIFES FLIES, mirrored vertically, with the second line appearing in reverse. Nauman's exploration of language and perception is evident in this piece, as the mirrored and jumbled text prompts viewers to reflect on the fleeting nature of life and the passage of time. The simplicity of the black text on a white background allows the conceptual complexity to take center stage, a hallmark of Nauman's approach to art, where language becomes both the subject and the medium.
