Lawrence Weiner, born in 1942 in Bronxu (New York) is a representative of American conceptualism.
His work is based on a linguistic message in the form of texts, citations and analytical argument. In the early sixties, he started his artistic work as a painting, continued with the works of processual art, textual works, posters, art books, textual installations, scenographies and film.
He is famous for his 'Declaration of Intent' from 1968:
1. The artist may construct the piece.
2. The piece may be fabricated.
3. The piece need not be built.
Each being equal and consistent with the intent of the artist the decision as to condition rests with receiver upon the occasion of receivership.
The work of Lawrenc Weiner »SOME SAND + SOME HEAT« from 2000 stands on the south facade of the Museum of Contemporary Art Metelkova (MSUM), which was first exhibited in the context of the Arteast 2000+ Collection.

Lawrence Weiner / [texts] Alexander Alberro ... [et al.]. - London : Phaidon, 1998. - 160 str. : ilustr. ; 29 cm. - (Contemporary artists)
"Lawrence Weiner's art can appear painted across an entire building, floating inside a souvenir pen or sung as a lyric by a country and western band. One of the canonical Conceptual artists of the 1960s, Weiner was among the first to 'dematerialize' the object of art into the realm of language and ideas. He composes texts that describe process, material and structure while evoking a poetic drama that unfolds in the reader's mind. Using a utilitarian yet elegant typeface and stark monochrome or vivid colours, his works have a striking formal beauty. Dedicated to the circulation of art and ideas, a single statement of Weiner's can take the form of myriad media, ranging from paint to stone to video. This book is the first comprehensive survey of an internationally-celebrated artist who continues to compose innovative new commissions around the world. Alexander Alberro, contemporary art scholar and author of numerous texts on Conceptualism, collaborates with writer and art archivist Alice Zimmerman to overview Wiener's extensive oeuvre. Renowned art theorist Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, who has written widely on postwar European and American Art, conducts an interview with the artist. Author of a survey on Minimalism, critic and artist David Batchelor examines the chameleon changes of one work in a range of contexts. The artist has chosen poems by Kenneth Patchen and W. B. Yeats for the Artist's Choice, and for the Artist's Writings he has made a selection of his his own scripts, lectures and previous interviews."--> na ščitnem ov. - Bibliografija: str. 159-160
