Christian Boltanski

"When I began, en las rocas de Almería, I made water drawings on the rocks. And then, after, I was living in the city for a while and I thought: these tall buildings are my mountains. La calle es mi valle. Estos pequeños side streets son mi caverna. Estas noticias y graffittis son las paredes de mis cuevas. Y entonces empecé a hacer cosas en la calle."
Lawrence Weiner
Weiner explored the potential of language as a sculptural material and an art form. Weiner won many awards, and his work can be found in the world’s leading contemporary art collections.
My work is my body, my body is my work.
