I am familiar with Jenny Holzer from my early days studying Art History. She is knows for projects large scale type of massive building walls, and architecture. She entitles these 'truisms', short statements that uses modern information systems to present her issues or thought on 'contemporary society'. These projections have been seen in Rome, Paris, Venice, Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, new York City, Berlin, and Washington, just to name a few.

Cool stuff! I'm quite a fan of large-scale work, it gives it so much more impact than seeing the same thing on a poster.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what got her into this line of work?
