Sol Lewitt, Artist

"Sol LeWitt (b. 1928) is an originator of conceptual art, in which the work of art--typically an installation rather than an art object in the conventional sense--is either incarnated by language alone or produced according to the artist's written instructions. LeWitt developed the idea for the wall drawings in the late 1960s." -from the National Gallery of Art. Link here to read more.

Jenny Holzer, Artist

"Whether questioning consumerist impulses, describing torture, or lamenting death and disease, Jenny Holzer’s use of language provokes a response in the viewer. While her subversive work often blends in among advertisements in public space, its arresting content violates expectations. Holzer’s texts—such as the aphorisms “Abuse of power comes as no surprise” and “Protect me from what I want”—have appeared on posters and condoms, and as electronic LED signs and projections of xenon light." -from the ART 21 website.
