Jenny Holzer Writes Projections as Art

Jenny Holzer is an artist presenting ideas in words for public spaces. 

The public dimension is integral to Holzer's work. Her large-scale installations have included advertising billboards, projections on buildings and other architectural structures, and illuminated electronic displays. LED signs have become her most visible medium, although her diverse practice incorporates a wide array of media including street posters, painted signs, stone benches, paintings, photographs, sound, video, projections, the Internet, and a race car for BMW. Text-based light projections have been central to Holzer’s practice since 1996. As of 2010, her LED signs have become more sculptural. Holzer is no longer the author of her texts, and in the ensuing years, she returned to her roots by painting.

I found her through Twitter, someone else said she was one of his favourite people to quote. My experience has been different. To me she sounds fatalistic, meaning she has lost hope and doesn't feel anything will change for the better. 

ENJOY YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU CAN'T CHANGE ANYTHING ANYWAY

IN SOME INSTANCES IT'S BETTER TO DIE THAN TO CONTINUE

CALM IS MORE CONDUCTIVE TO CREATIVITY THAN IS ANXIETY

These are among her recent posts. The first one is current, posted today. I don't find those inspirational and I don't agree with them either. 

I do like some of her quotes, but these three make me worry for her. I hope she has people around to notice should she need help. 

Anyway, I posted her link and her art out of interest for the genre. I like combining art genres and styles in new and interesting ways. What would you post up on a building in lights? Something you wanted to share and inspire the world (or at least the city) with.
