Jenny Holzer at Helmut Lang

by Josh Rubin

Despite the hardly audible tst, tst. sir... no photo, s'il vous plaît of the uptight shop keeper, I was able to grab a shot of one of Jenny Holzer's latest pieces. The tickering text light artist has outdone herself this time by integrating an LED sculpture in to the handrail alongside a staircase. Installed in the almost one year old Helmut Lang Paris shop, this piece is like a river of words flowing both up and down stream.


S2A Belts

In their gallery / shop space in Paris, Surface 2 Air features clothes and objects that nicely blend art and fashion. Each of these woven belts, for example, look great as individual items, but when presented side by side form a single image. As far as I'm concerned, this is a most genius approach to creating limited editions. Further, each belt is one of a kind because of where the pattern lands on the piece.

Thanks, David, for helping me find the S2A store!
