Jenny Holzer's For the Guggenheim

Art

For the past three years from September 2005 to July 2008 the Guggenheim underwent an extensive restoration to Frank Lloyd Wright’s iconic building. To compliment the completion of the restoration, the Guggenheim has commissioned Jenny Holzer to create a site specific piece. Titled For the Guggenheim Holzer has incorporated her personal poems and writings to the artwork, projecting them onto the surface of the building every Friday evening from 6:30 to 11p.m. The piece will be on view till December 31st with a special showing on New Year’s Eve.
