“En Route: Via Another Route” is an artwork created in 2005 by Lawrence Weiner, a prominent figure in the Conceptual Art movement. The genre of the artwork is figurative.
The artwork comprises a textual arrangement on a plain backdrop, with the words “EN ROUTE” positioned diagonally in the top-left section of the space, underlined by two blue lines. Below this, and arched in a semi-circular form, are the words “VIA ANOTHER ROUTE” in a bold, outlined font. The use of text as the primary medium, a hallmark of Conceptual Art, challenges traditional notions of artistic representation and invites viewers to contemplate alternative interpretations and pathways.
