Good morning. Jenny Holzer’s current exhibition at the Guggenheim in New York reimagines her 1989 installation at the museum, wrapping its iconic spiral rotunda in her distinctive scrolling aphorisms. But when Hyperallergic Senior Editor Hakim Bishara visited the show, he was just as moved by what was left unsaid. His review, a must-read today, is below.
Also today, Nancy Zastudil interviews artist Harmony Hammond for our ongoing Pride Month series centering queer elders, and Staff Writer Rhea Nayyar visits the Bishop Gallery in Brooklyn ahead of its latest exhibition. In the news, a group of anti-Zionist artists who withdrew their work from an exhibition at San Francisco's Contemporary Jewish Museum staged an action outside the institution on Thursday night, with one artist breaking her own sculpture in protest. — Valentina Di Liscia, News Editor
