JOHN GREER is an object maker. His work now and then is rooted in conceptual thought. Material in service to the idea. On this page you can find a selection of multi media works, new and old. You can find more of these in the pages: Art Up - On Life.

Project: Post-marker cards, Six Points of a Shadow, 1969/70
As discussed in various exhibitions and on CBC radio, this artwork by John Greer may have been the largest conceptual drawing to date: A paper airplane was drawn by John on a map and the connecting points were realized in real life through sending postcards to the post office in the respective real world location as pointed out on the map. Thus a drawing in real space was created.
