Belligerent — Book Signing & Exhibition of Works by Jenny Holzer

Please join us for a book signing event with Jenny Holzer in support of ‘Belligerent’, newly published by Ivorypress as part of their LiberArs series. The publication contains six redacted U.S. government documents that unfold into posters — each page taken from investigations of abuse in military prisons, including handprints gathered during multiple inquiries. The documents are accompanied by an essay by Joshua Craze, who writes: “There is a double violence in the redacted documents that Holzer paints: the violence done to the detainees, meted out in secret, and the violence done to the truth, visible in the redactions of the documents. The truth does not simply disappear, but appears as an absence.”
