Jenny Holzer

In 1977, Jenny Holzer began to paste posters on the streets of New York City: anonymous, alphabetical lists of concise statements on subjects including capitalism, class, sex, and love. In the years
since, Holzer’s pithy, often enigmatic messages have infi ltrated everyday life through materials from benches and LEDs to condom wrappers and tea sets. A cross-section of these objects is included in Holzer’s new installation, which spans the artist’s career to date.
 

Principal exhibition support for Jenny Holzer is provided by Anne and Gregory Avis. Major exhibition support is provided by the VIA Art Fund. Contributing exhibition support is provided by the Barbara Lee Family Foundation.

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking, and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the  Muhheaconneok, Mohican people or Munsee Lenape people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all. More information can be found here.
