A founder of the conceptual art movement, Lawrence Weiner (b. 1942, United States) is a sculptor based in New York and Amsterdam. In an effort to make art that is accessible, open-ended, mutable, and transferable, Weiner's primary medium is language. Since the 1970s, he has treated words as sculptural material through his installations, consisting solely of words in nondescript lettering painted on walls.
