Seeing Jenny Holzer on here was a pleasant surprise!
ABUSE OF POWER COMES AS NO SURPRISE
is probably one of my favorite of her truisms. On a similar note, her Inflammatory Essays (1979-1982) are a good read too [1].
Her more recent work Projections doesn't involve much of her own writing but it's interesting nonetheless (both the texts and the medium). She talks about it a bit in this video [2].
And I quite like her Redaction Paintings that were made from redacted military files [3].
