Description
Artists Monument by Tony Tasset for the Whitney Biennial in Hudson River Park, NYC.
The multicolored acrylic panels are etched with the names of 392,486 modern and contemporary artists, ranging from Picasso and Warhol to emerging artists with a single exhibition to their credit. By building this monument in a public space, with the artists' names listed alphabetically and the colors arranged randomly, Tasset symbolically flattens the hierarchies that exist between lauded and unknown artists and instead celebrates the entire community.
