Jenny Holzer thrives outside the more traditional, brick-and-mortar art world of paint and photography, using LED and light projection as her medium. Starting today, her exhibit PROTECT PROTECT lights up the Whitney. As with past works such as For the City, where she beamed poems on buildings throughout New York, she continues using poetry in her work. However, thanks to the Freedom of Information Act, this show also includes manipulations and projections of government documents, while covering her craft from the '90s to the present.
