Jenny Holzer: Light Line

Jenny Holzer: Light Line
Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum – May 17 to Sep 29, 2024 New York (US)

This exhibition will present a reimagination of Jenny Holzer’s landmark 1989 installation at the Guggenheim. Climbing all six ramps of the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed rotunda to the building’s apex, the site-specific installation will transform the building with a display of scrolling texts, featuring selections from her iconic series, such as “Truisms” and “Inflammatory Essays”.

LED sign.

Light Line will highlight the incisive use of the written word across time and media in Holzer’s practice. In addition to the LED sign, the exhibition will feature a selection of Holzer’s works from the 1970s to the present day, including paintings, works on paper, and stone pieces. From May 16–20, the artist’s light projection For the Guggenheim will be displayed on the building’s façade at sundown.
