Join us this month for a tour of our newest exhibition Jenny Holzer: Light Line.
This exhibition presents a reimagination of Jenny Holzer’s landmark 1989 installation at the Guggenheim. Climbing all six ramps of the museum, this LED site-specific installation transforms the building with a display of scrolling texts, featuring selections from her iconic series, such as “Truisms” and “Inflammatory Essays”.
Light Line highlights the incisive use of the written word across time and media in Holzer’s practice. In addition to the LED sign, the exhibition features a selection of Holzer’s works from the 1970s to the present day, including paintings, works on paper, and stone pieces.
This month’s Mind’s Eye programming will be led by artist and educator Maya Jeffereis through verbal description and conversation. The virtual session will be accessible by web link or by dial-in phone number, depending on your preference.
The program is repeated both online and in person. Please select one date to attend:
Free, but space is limited. RSVP is required three days before the program. To RSVP, call 212 360 4355 or email access@guggenheim.org.
