It is such an innocuous headline, in the Arts section, that it would be easy to pass it by without notice:

Jenny Holzer’s Unexpected New Canvas: The Boulders of Ibiza

But then, what?!?!

Really? She was commissioned to permanently scar the landscape with clever words? Apparently so:

“…the highlights have to be the carefully chosen cliffs, boulders and bedrocks that became canvases for engraving. Situated about 15 miles from Laliberté’s outposts, some of the rocks are in the sightline of the small, uninhabited isle Es Vedrà, reportedly the third-most magnetic place on Earth after the North Pole and the Bermuda Triangle, and shrouded in legend.”…

On this site we find reason, often, to share stories from and about art and the art world. None of us are experts, except that we “care about art” in some normal manner. So we have opinions and varying tastes. But at just this moment, I am not interested in art. I am hoping I have misread this doting little notice in the New York Times about Jenny Holzer’s newest art installation. There is no question raised in the notice about the permanence of her “art” in this beautiful landscape. Please, if you know, write a comment here to clarify: did she really make permanent graffiti in Es Vedrà?
