I first encountered Jenny Holzer's Truisms anonymously plastered in the Lower East Side where we both lived. She claimed no authorship but questioned the authority of language. They were declarative, inflammatory, and provocative.
Her work has expanded to include poets, redacted government texts, and layered words of internationally renowned writers. She's having another exhibition at the Guggenheim this year, embracing collaboration and new technologies while maintaining her singularity as an artist.
