Wendy White

Wendy White Work from her oeuvre. “At street level, New York is buried beneath a dense, dirty layer of signage and posters, graffiti and stickers, texts and other markings that represent every degree of legibility, legitimacy, and endurance. Heavily trafficked spots take on a life of their own as these elements trace a cycle of […]

Nominally a reflective communications satellite, Echo I’s primary mission was to be visible to the naked eye by the earth’s entire population. Early […]

Trevor Paglen

Trevor Paglen Work from Nonfunctional Satellites. Developed in collaboration with aerospace engineers, the nonfunctional satellites are space-worthy sculptures designed as small, lightweight satellites that expand to become large, highly reflective structures.

There is a continuity of tradition evident, however, with each successive artist having the advantage of hindsight, […]
