Felix Gonzalez-Torres was known for poetic, minimalist installations made from everyday materials such as candy, paper stacks, clocks, billboards, and strings of light bulbs. His works often invite viewers to participate by taking a piece from the installation, so that the artwork’s appearance changes over time. In this way, he explored loss, memory, and love during the AIDS crisis.
