Public Art/Pittsburgh Authors
As the NEW YORK TIMES reports,
"a new public art installation by Jenny Holzer sends the texts of five books by authors with Pittsburgh roots — Annie Dillard, John Edgar Wideman and Thomas Bell — scrolling upward along hundreds of feet of the swooping roofline of the David L. Lawrence Convention Center."
The POST-GAZETTE has better coverage.
More authors will be added later. From the TIMES report it's unclear whether or not this will be a permanent installation, but the P-G suggests it, noting that the installation "is expected to add about $50 a month to the center's electric bill."
