Jonas is the subject of two revelatory exhibitions now on view in New York along with the MoMA retrospective (through July 6), the Drawing Center is presenting a survey of works on paper, “Animal, Vegetable, Mineral,” through June 2. When I try to get an overview of Jonas’s work, I often consider the title of a work of hers from 1973: Glass Puzzle. I saw a version of this piece in her 2018 retrospective at London’s Tate Modern Glass Puzzle II, which is dated 1974/2000 and incorporates the original black-and-white video projected onto a paper screen, color footage from 1974 displayed on a small monitor, and a child’s desk that replicates one seen in the 1973 video, with some objects, props, inside.
