Collaborating with professional sign spinners, Yumi Janairo Roth creates insightful juxtapositions between the physical presence of street-corner advertising and the work of one of America’s founding conceptual artists, Sol LeWitt (1928-2007). The sign includes the text from Sol LeWitt's "Sentences on Conceptual Art" (no. 10) and was spun by Rayen Jones for Spin (after Sol LeWitt).
