Every night in February, at the stroke of 11:57, Tracey Emin will restore neon and romance to Times Square. On more than 40 screens large and small, for a span of three minutes, her six messages of love will spell themselves out, digitally animated to appear as if being written by a giant unseen hand.

British artist Rachel Whiteread has created a new work of art for the building's facade - her first permanent public commission in the UK. The Whitechapel Gallery commission is made possible by the Art Fund and is part of the London 2012 Festival. With additional support from The Henry Moore Foundation.
