"NEWS is made up of the front pages of 100 newspapers from far-flung lands. They were collected during calendar year 2010 and reworked by the artist."--Title page verso.
"The present inundates us with headlines, which then fade quickly. The artist draws our attention to this phenomenon by causing the front pages of one hundred newspapers to become overgrown with vegetation, creating a metaphor for the nullity of the moment in the great clockwork of nature."--Publisher's description.
