Wanås Wall , 2002
260 inscriptions in 1800 meters stone wall / 260 inscriptions in 1,800 meters of dry-stone wall
“When Jenny Holzer was invited to exhibit at Wanås, she was fascinated by the historic stone walls that run along the outer boundaries of the park, a descent in the Swedish countryside that tells about the work of older people. She let the stone shaker from the neighborhood sandblast four text series in selected stones. In total there are 260 text lines that appear on a regular basis in the 1.8 km long wall. The artwork begins at the park’s entrance with Truisms.”
