Mini Electric LED Sign with Diodes in Colors // Living 2 by Jenny Holzer, created between 1980 and 1982, is a mixed media sculpture featuring a mini electric LED sign with colored diodes. The grid displays a structured arrangement of red, green, and yellow diodes against a black background, housed within a minimalist black frame. Holzer’s work often explores language and communication through technological mediums, using light and coded signals to engage viewers. The methodical organization of the diodes evokes a sense of rhythm and order while encouraging reflection on the symbolic or conceptual meanings of the lights. Holzer's blend of minimalist design and powerful messaging makes this work thought-provoking and visually striking.

What is minimalism?
Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
