Mix: Songs To Chill To vol. 11

Jenny Holzer is an artist known for her text-based works that question the mechanics of communication and challenge the traditional confines of art, where it should be presented and for what audience. This sculptural work is part of her "Survival Series" and is called "When There’s No Safe Place To Sleep." It invites the viewer to sit on a bench. Upon sitting on the bench, you feel the coldness of the marble and become acquainted with the text engraved onto its face. You can feel the engraved letters, which are in all caps in a serif font. The top of the bench is reminiscent of a plaque or even a tombstone, bringing to mind ideas of mortality. The heaviness and darkness of the marble make the bench look like a monument to be revered. Holzer's sculpture similarly invites viewers to enjoy a quiet moment of reflection.

This described tour was produced for the Vancouver Art Gallery by Stephanie Bokenfohr, with sound design by Derek Brunen.

Jenny Holzer, The Survival Series: When There's No Safe Place to Sleep

Founded in 1931, the Vancouver Art Gallery is recognized as one of North America’s most respected and innovative visual arts institutions. The Gallery’s innovative ground-breaking exhibitions, extensive public programs and emphasis on advancing scholarship all focus on the historical and contemporary art of British Columbia and international centres, with special attention to the accomplishments of First Nations artists and the art of the Asia Pacific region­—through the Institute of Asian Art founded in 2014. The Gallery’s programs also explore the impacts of images in the larger sphere of visual culture, design and architecture.

The Vancouver Art Gallery is a not-for-profit organization supported by its members, individual donors, corporate funders, foundations, the City of Vancouver, the Province of British Columbia through the British Columbia Arts Council, and the Canada Council for the Arts. We thank everyone for their continuing support.

The Vancouver Art Gallery is situated on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples, and is respectful of the Indigenous stewards of the land it occupies, whose rich cultures are fundamental to artistic life in Vancouver and to the work of the Gallery.
