Ongoing Exploration of James Joyce with Neon Light Installation

In Istanbul, the Kuad Gallery presents a stunning light installation called, "The Wake – an arrangement of references with all the appearance of autonomy".  Created by American conceptual artist Joseph Kosuth to showcase the ongoing exploration of James Joyce's book "Finnegans Wake."

The work started four years ago, when Kosuth thoughtfully curated a selection of words from the book. The installation is created from hand bent neon words in English and Turkish. He set out to show the power of language and technology.
