YOU ARE RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW shines in white neon letters 
behind a two-way mirror reflecting the visitors and the surrounding 
space. The appellative message combined with the two-way mirror in 
front of it seems to wake up viewers to the present and question their 
position in space and time.

Shading Monument for the Artist
Cevdet Erek

2009/2011
43 1/4 x 181 inches
CE 100

Cevdet Erek works with migratory nature of the contemporary art community that moves individuals away from their homes in order to participate. Erek's sculpture comes out of the wall and functions as an awning. The awning is cut in a way that its shade reads as an adapted text from monuments for International Brigades of the Spanish Civil War built around Europe.

IN HONOR OF COUNTLESS PEOPLE , WHO LEFT THEIR HOMELANDS TO , CREATE FREELY IN THE HEROIC , STRUGGLE FOR ART. MANY FELT , ALONE, ISOLATED AND LIKE LOSERS. , BUT NEVER SURRENDERED. THEIR EXAMPLE INSPIRED THE WORLD.

Artist couple and a baby's lives and thoughts in 100 posterworks

//LetterMidst Feature 
Artist couple Anna Gray and Ryan Wilson Paulsen used plain posterworks in black and white images to create this 2-yr-long, 100 Posterworks art project about they lives, philosophical questions, comment on political or artistic issues.

The work is witty, thought-provoking and fun-to-view (look at their straight faces!).  I was thinking "It's so cool to have artist parents!" when I was reading it.  Afterall, whose baby album was shown in art exhibitions?

Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear

Jeppe Hein

Material: steel construction, spy mirror glass, neon tubes, transformer, aluminium board

Dimensions: 252 x 149 x 16,40 cm

-
Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear is a neon text embedded in a mirror made of spy mirror glass. The work relates to the discourse of questioning the art public and the act of looking at artworks. The viewer not only catches his own reflection and the reflection of the surrounding but also perceives the text that challenges what is seen.
