A months-long controversy involving a Nick Cave installation, building codes, and the slippery line between art and signage has finally come to a close in a tiny New York town.
This week, the zoning board of the Village of Kinderhook unanimously ruled that
Truth Be Told, a text work by Cave and designer Bob Faust, could remain on the facade of gallerist Jack Shainman’s upstate New York outpost, the School. It was the first time the village leaders acknowledged the installation as a piece of art.
“I didn’t set out to have this fight, but I will always stand behind my artists and for what I believe to be the greater good,” Shainman told Artnet News. “This victory allows us to move forward with The School’s mission, which is to present important artworks and exhibitions that speak to our moment in time. I am looking forward to continuing to do that in collaboration with the Village of Kinderhook, which is a community of which I have been a part for more than two decades.”
