Crystal ball with gravure Diameter: 8 cm. Hand-signed and numbered by the artist on a certificate of authenticity. // This witty and conceptually loaded multiple by Jenny Holzer engraves one of her celebrated Truisms into the surface of a crystal ball — a fortune-teller’s object repurposed as a vehicle for sharp, aphoristic language. “The future is stupid” cuts through mystical pretension with characteristic Holzer directness, transforming prophecy into provocation. The small, luminous sphere, just eight centimetres in diameter, concentrates the artist’s decades-long exploration of text, power, and public space into an intimate, hand-held form. Hand-signed and numbered on a certificate of authenticity, this edition piece is at once poetic, wry, and unmistakably Holzer.

What is ‘light and space’?

The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
