"Forget Flavin"comes from the title of Baudrillard‘s “Oublier Foucault” (1977), simultaneously an ode to and critique of Foucault that remains unanswered. Senstad appropriates Baudrillard’s concept, declaring through the neon artwork her admiration for and antagonism to the great American minimalist artist Dan Flavin.
