Barry Schwabsky on the art of Joan Jonas

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.

The Eyes of Site Specific Art (Re-imagined)

The Guest Critic is charged with suggesting a topic or theme that can be explored and debated for this special section of the Rail. On the occasion of the re-staging of Jenny Holzer’s 1989, architecturally encompassing piece at the Guggenheim, I have chosen the theme of site-specific Art. To my mind, Holzer’s Guggenheim project is one of the great site-specific works of my generation. It is also part of a larger history that has grown in some very interesting ways.
