Jenny Holzer, Chicago Exhibit

Jenny Holzer, prominent and diverse artist, opens at the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art. More pics and info after the jump.

Jenny Holzer never signs her work. Her most prominent creations, glowing text-based installations fashioned over the last 30 years on everything from billboards and building façades to rock faces and crashing waves, are almost eerie in their anonymity, voices anchored more to their physical and social contexts than to any single, human personality.





Her truisms, deliberate clichés, and borrowed prose touch on subjects as disparate as consumer culture and torture, death, power, and love, and boldly feature on some of the world’s grandest stages - from a giant 1980s Times Square electronic billboard shouting ‘Protect Me From What I Want’, to the LED installation she created at the Reichstag, to poetry projected onto the side of the New York Public Library, and one of her latest projects, a stream of white-lit text scrolling across and illuminating the lobby of 7 World Trade Center in downtown Manhattan.






A new exhibition, opening on Saturday 25th at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, Jenny Holzer: Protect Protect, examines the artist’s work since the 1990s across a breadth of media including futuristic LED installations, sculpture, light projections, and paintings based on declassified government documents. Even at its most urgent the tone is never aggressive, more a plea than an order. What emerges is a body of work that is at once beautiful, thought provoking, and strangely quiet.

Naked Beauty....

So that our readers may not misunderstand this post as completely inappropriate and perhaps pornographic, let me explain the context of this next post. I happened to stumble upon a few artistic magazines this weekend and the content was impressive to say the least. The images they depicted were celebrate the beauty of sexuality and the naturalness of the human body instead of exploiting the human body in a graphic and pornographic way.
