Her art may blend in with Las Vegas-strip-style lighted advertisements, but Jenny Holzer's brightly colored Truisms and arresting catchphrases are unlike anything found on a typical billboard. This exhibition features recent work in several mediums, including painting and sculpture, but we're looking forward to site-specific installations in her signature medium — minimalist, text-driven LED displays of short-but-powerful politically charged messages. Similar to projects she has done internationally and in the lobby of 7 World Trade Center, she also projects text on the museum's facade after dark this Wednesday through Friday.
