Jenny Holzer è un'artista concettuale americana nota per le sue installazioni pubbliche su larga scala che utilizzano parole e idee nello spazio pubblico. Il suo lavoro impiega spesso media visibili come insegne a LED e proiezioni, attirando l'attenzione su questioni sociali. L'arte di Holzer approfondisce temi di violenza, oppressione, sessualità, femminismo, potere, guerra e morte. Un obiettivo centrale della sua pratica è illuminare verità nascoste e portare alla luce pensieri che rimangono segreti.
