An art installation in Phoenix displays signs from 58 failed presidential campaigns on the front yard of a private residence. Photo by Lena Jackson/PBS News On Election Day, campaign signs adorn yards, roadways and other areas outside “no electioneering” boundaries at the polls. (They also get stolen.) Artist Nina Katchadourian’s “Monument to the Unelected” is an ode to the enthusiasm-through-advertising expressed in the build-up to an election. The installation is made up of 58 signs of all the candidates who ran for president and lost. Photos by Lena Jackson/PBS News Remember “Choose Hughes in 1916”? (Probably not.) “Parker Davis ‘04” was the Democratic ticket that lost to Theodore Roosevelt in 1904. Henry Clay, whose name is repeated in the installation, unsuccessfully ran for president three times. The signage underscores the “blank spots” in U.S. history, the artist said. Once the votes are cast, a winner is declared, and the memories of the losing campaign fade. Now on display on the front lawn of a private residence in Phoenix, a 59th sign representing the losing campaign will be added to the installation after Tuesday’s election.
