Catalogue Note

"I created this bench especially ​for the '1 in 11' campaign in the hope that its sale​ will aid that ​initiative. The bench's ​text;, In a dream you saw a way to survive and you were full of joy, is from Survival, a series I wrote in the early 80s'. The sentence ​is aspirational, like '1 in 11'. I want​ to contribute​." Jenny Holzer, 2014
