A WORK IN PUBLIC SPACE BY THOMAS HIRSCHHORN, PRODUCED BY DIA ART FOUNDATION NEW YORK
LOCATED AT FOREST HOUSES, THE BRONX - NEW YORK CITY, SUMMER 2013
My aim is to make a reference-catalog about the difficulty, the complexity and the
beauty of a work of Art in Public Space. A book that shows the artist's (my) ambition
to make a new kind of Monument. A book that shows my insistence on the power of Art to provoke
encounters, my belief in the resistance of Art and its power to not be neutralized
by culture and consumption. The catalog will document the competence and ability
Art can have in Public Space: To create a Form for Implication, for Justice, for
Conflict, for Knowledge, for Universality, for Autonomy, for the Other, for Co-Existence,
for Transgression and for Love.
