The Encyclopedia of Invisibility

Tavares Strachan has created 60 monumental neon installations set onto the facade of the Carnegie Museum of Art’s classical building. Titled The Encyclopedia of Invisibility, the neon works present the names of underrepresented and culturally marginalized historical figures that have been left out of official records and canons, chosen from the artist’s 2,400 page work, Encyclopedia of the Invisible.
