Exhibition catalogue for Jenny Holzer's first large-scale solo exhibition in Japan that ran July 30, 1994 to October 16th, 1994 at Japan’s Art Tower Mito.
For this exhibition, her English texts were translated into Japanese beforehand. Thus for the first time Japanese texts appeared on Untitled (from MOTHER AND CHILD), a work presented at Venice Biennale in 1990, and on Serpentine (from Various Series), a new winding electric billboard designed for Art Tower Mito's Entrance Hall. Holding up "unnecessary death" as the theme of the exhibition, Holzer presented those works which she had produced by adopting viewpoints of war sufferers, raped people and those deemed incurable.
