Living Jenny Holzer, Yvon Lambert, Paris, 1998. This work is from the First Edition.
In the late 1970s, Holzer began anonymously posted sheets of acerbic statements in public spaces, such as “ABUSE OF POWER COMES AS NO SURPRISE” and “THE ONLY WAY TO BE PURE IS TO STAY BY YOURSELF” and “REPETITION IS THE BEST WAY TO LEARN THINGS.” This book makes reference to Holzer's "Living" series (1980-1982) in which she created bronze plaques that evoke authority and commemoration, as well as the political, cultural, social, and economic systems that create and maintain systems of order, structure, regulation, and commerce to their benefit.
