The stone facades and ornate ceilings of Blenheim Palace (@blenheimpalace) in Oxford, England, are currently home to an exhibition by the conceptual artist Lawrence Weiner, who works primarily with language. The show includes small paintings placed subtly among other palace treasures, as well as pieces Lawrence created specifically for the show, such as the title piece, “Within a Realm of Distance,” which glows at the palace entrance. “My favorite work is ‘More than enough’ on the ceiling of the library,” says Elena Shamis (@elensham), a marketing manager who lives in London and visited the palace on Saturday. “I see a connection between language — Weiner’s artistic medium — and the books that surround us in the library.” Photo by @elensham
