As U.S. Election Nears, Zoe Leonard’s ‘I Want a President’ Will Be Installed on New York’s High Line

When Zoe Leonard wrote her manifesto-like essay I want a president, the Democrats were running Bill Clinton. Now, with another Clinton campaigning to be president, Leonard will install that text as a 20-by-30-foot wheat-paste installation on New York’s High Line. Leonard’s piece, which will appear on the western pillar of the Standard hotel, between West 13th and Little West 12th Streets, will be on view from October 11 through November 17.

“It’s very do-it-yourself, very private and yet immediately public, almost declamatory—it’s like turning the High Line into a speakers’ corner, with very simple, immediate means of communication,” Cecilia Alemani, the curator and director of High Line Art, told ARTnews in an email. Clinton’s opponents in the year I want a president was originally published (it was commissioned by a now defunct queer magazine) were, of course, Republican George H.W.
