Fiona Banner | Full Stop







Fiona Banner
Full Stop
London, UK: Frith Street Gallery, 1997
19 x 5 cm.
Edition of 3 signed copies


Characterized by the artist as “the smallest neon in the world”, this full stop (or period) by Fiona Banner followed the artist’s bookwork, THE NAM [below], in which she recounted the entire plots of five films about the Viet Nam War, to create an “unreadable novel”. 

The neon and lead on plastic mount work comes housed in a wooden box and is accompanied by a signed certificate. 

The potential of the punctuation mark would continue to inspire Banners work in the decades to come (see next post). 


“It is just a little bit of neon glass that I blew. I liked it because it is a breath encapsulated in glass, as a full stop is a breath in some ways. It represented a gap for me in terms of ideas. I wasn’t sure what to do next as an artist. After a while I tried looking at that awkwardness physically, in terms of making something of it, instead of it being an abstract pain. Also there are no neon full stops out there."

  2. Not related but maybe someone may need this: I once saw a comment on giffgaff about XAP CREDIT SOLUTION and how they helped a certain Noah Davidson, I became curious and wondered if they could help me fix my poor credit and eliminate bad debts because it was so bad that my landlord almost threw us out of his house. Well with my fingers crossed, I gave XAP a try, eventually he fixed my credit report and gave me a reason to smile and be happy again. XAP removed the bad records on my report and raised my score to 791, here is their info (X A P C R E D I T S O L U T I O N @ G M A I L . C O M), Thanks.
