Artist in Residence Jeffery Gibson Participates in Massive, Nonpartisan Billboard Campaign to Raise Voter Awareness
“As part of ‘Art for Action,’ works by artists including Jeffrey Gibson, Jenny Holzer, Tomashi Jackson, and Carrie Mae Weems are on display on 350 digital screens in 16 cities across the US through Election Day, with seven additional artists showing on screens in Columbus and Cleveland, Ohio,” writes Hyperallegenic. “Approximately 3.34 million people will see them every day, totaling more than 106.7 million people throughout its monthlong run, making it the largest, nonpartisan voter awareness public art campaign. It’s a massive effort to counter voter suppression in the lead-up to one of the most anticipated and decisive elections in the country’s modern history.”
