The Art of Jenny Holzer

[@TatianaHopper]

In this video there were some technical problems with my sound recording, so apologies for those levels. I've already fired the sound guy for his poor work... :)

[@theundefinedphotographer]

I briefly came across her work in an exhibit during Nuit Blanche in Toronto a couple years back. Her art really gets under your skin, in a good way

[@TatianaHopper]

Totally. Thank you for watching C. I saw your comments yesterday in the live chat, thank you for being there :)

[@theundefinedphotographer]

@@TatianaHopper It was a pleasure! Really enjoyed tuning in!

[@lizziedilloway3117]

You've helped me understand conceptualism the best! Thank you, sincerely an A-Level art student x

[@TatianaHopper]

Ahaha thank you Lizzie I appreciate you!

[@cinesthesia7]

I've been on a Jenny Holzer kick lately and remembered you had made this. This is so lovely and a real pleasure to revisit.

[@onurgaziofficial]

I watch all his videos sequentially, starting from the end. It adds a lot and is inspiring. Thank you.

[@marrabowens5208]

I love how you express art. Thank you for sharing with us

[@TatianaHopper]

👍🏻

[@j.s8615]

Every time a new video of yours comes out i'm always so happy. I like the way you talk about photography and photographers, i always want to go and raid a photo book shop and disappear into a cafe for a few hours so i can study them. I can't wait for covid to end so i can hunt down the artists you've mentioned in the past, and this one, and flip through. Thanks for the inspiring video

[@TatianaHopper]

Hey Jessie thank you. That’s so cool very glad I can help and inspire. Thank you for watching!

[@vincentdiggins5191]

I heard about you from Grainydays. This is a wonderful video, as are the others of yours I've watched. Keep up the great work. This reminded me of walking through Times Square on my way to work and thinking about the messages she had put up on the marquees of the theatres. Thanks, Vince

[@TatianaHopper]

Vincent Diggins that must’ve been extremely interesting. I personally find the street signs and benches and other work she did and displayed in the streets incredibly bold, exciting and inspiring. Thank you for watching.

[@TheBigNegative-PhotoChannel]

You are really the best successor to "the art of photography". ted forbes is somehow only interested in introducing smartphones. but you are interested in art and that is why I like your channel a lot.

[@TatianaHopper]

Thank you Dan! Appreciate it and thank you for watching :)

[@kristoffergo6294]

Agree with this one. He is just interested in new cameras and smartphones now. I think because it's the only thing that generates clicks and income. But for people who loves photography t.hopper is one of the best channels:)

[@filmismorefun]

Conceptual art seems to convey more feeling (for me) when I observe it. Side note, I can't believe tumbler is still around.

[@TatianaHopper]

Film is more fun me neither 😂

[@clarhettcoalfield3616]

Such a cool connection, art of any kind is an inspirational stepping stone, able to not only stretch the process of how we interpret the many mediums that surround us on a daily bases, and how by if we let it - to affect our own manufactured creative outputs, be they film or photography, or painting. Cross-pollination in the arts, is the ability for each of us to adapt and to grow. I loved this video.

[@TatianaHopper]

Clarhett Coalfield couldn’t agree more, thank you for watching ;)

[@JennAlessa]

I've seen some of the pieces around Tumblr, too but didn't know the artist. Some of her texts really hit me and I'm glad that you shared this so now I know were to go for more great art to make me go into existential thinking mode! - About the video sound, it felt Lo-Fi but not in a bad way (at least not for me).

[@TatianaHopper]

Thank you Jenn!

[@EdwardIglesias]

As a wobbly agnostic I don't usually do bible quotes but your video reminded me of one: "For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do." Romans 7:19. Now back to your regularly scheduled Pagan programming.

[@cowboyyoga]

Thank you.... you have such a nice way of sharing. Jenny is very interesting. Well follow the path deeper into the rabbit hole. ))) Wish you a good weekend ! )

[@sebastiankunick5580]

Great video. Very informative

[@TatianaHopper]

Thank you Seb!

[@GaryALucas]

I first heard of Jenny Holzer back in the '80's in an Art Forum magazine article. It mentioned the Dennis Hopper movie 'Backtrack', in which he used Holzer's work and even her character, portrayed by Jodie Foster, to tell the story. Although the movie is sort of a crime thriller it does have somewhat of a study of motivation. I actually never did hear what Holzer thought of it, although Hopper himself was not entirely pleased. I found it interesting nevertheless.

[@shozy7941]

I love your music selection

[@TatianaHopper]

Thank you! :)

[@Zapruderfilm1963]

Another fantastic and informative video! Thank you for it!😀👍

[@TatianaHopper]

And Madison County Sound Labs for watching ;)

[@chrismehmet3463]

I know too well about audio issues, I recently filmed a whole video with a podcast mic back to front haha Great video none the less! Really inspired by the different mediums she uses to showcase her art

[@TatianaHopper]

Oh bless. Thank you for watching Chris & for the support!

[@evgeny9965]

when i first saw those billboard in Times Sq.. I thought how could the Mafia let this happen.

[@adventureStaley]

Bravo

[@di0cles]

Great video, thanks!

[@joanmichel]

one of my fav artists :)

[@JamieMPhoto]

I've seen at least one of her installations at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. It's a little hypnotic and really awesome. My introduction to her was probably that Kurt Cobain/Nirvana photo in front of one of her marquees ... Great episode, even with the audio issues. And yeah ... I've had my share of those.

[@TatianaHopper]

Thank you Jamie. That’s awesome, I’ve seen a couple of pieces of her at some point, but would love to see a live installation one day. ✌🏻

[@jameskelly4196]

Fascinating video thanks for sharing this great artist's work. As an idea for a future video, maybe you could do one on how to shoot a conceptual photo project? Any way great job!

[@TatianaHopper]

That's a great idea James, thank you for sharing your thoughts :)

[@jameskelly4196]

T. Hopper one idea I had was to reshoot an idea of Daido Moriyama called Light and Shadow. It was one of his photo books.

[@artbyzuzu4114]

Super 😊

[@danielheinley2514]

Just wanted to share a website that I use for art discovery, check out are.na it’s like tumblr but with no algorithm and there’s an easy reverse search for images to find original sources. Lots of interesting things on there!

[@TatianaHopper]

Thank you Daniel for the tip just checking it out :)

[@danielheinley2514]

T. Hopper sweet, glad you are! I didn’t wanna come across as some spam bot. I just genuinely like the site and though you might too.

[@TatianaHopper]

Daniel Heinley not problem at all. Thank you for watching :)

[@filmic1]

Is a Typology construction a form of conceptual photography/art?

[@TatianaHopper]

I believe so yes.

[@freequest]

I got inspiration from inspirobot.me/ 😂. Yeah, I used to do the IG thing where you have photos off all the same sort of theme the one day I decided not to I post photos of what I enjoy what I find interesting. Who wants to be forced into a rut because some social media star says you have to do this. And you know what its gotten me more invites to events and other places to take photos. Also #Strategicairmidnight

[@TatianaHopper]

FreeQuest 👏🏻

[@PedroHenrique-zz3op]

If you let me ask... What kind of profile on Tumblr you see?

[@TatianaHopper]

Just random profiles on history, art history and photography mostly.

[@benschweiger1671]

hi! do you have an instagram? would love to follow :P
