Deep Blue Sky

Deep Blue Sky

Lawrence Weiner
2002, 6:35 min, color, silent

Description

Deep Blue Sky is a witty game of association and juxtaposition. In this silent motion drawing or "structure," Weiner engages in visual and linguistic play. The interaction of Weiner's elliptical text and graphic symbols - which suggest stylized tic-tac-toe boards - allude to the relationships between artist/viewer and language and perception: "That of which there is no trace does not enter into the equation."

A Motion Picture of Lawrence Weiner. Produced by Moved Pictures, New York. Graphic Translation: Bethany Izard.
