Janet Goldner

Most of Us Are Immigrants combines language and objects to make conceptually-based public art that takes the whole city as its site.

Roberta Smith, The NY Times, August 8, 1997

Janet Goldner, of New York, spends much time in Mali. She makes free-standing steel sculptures and wall-bound installations that reference her artistic lineage going back to the welded sculpture of Julio Gonzalez. But the work also displays her social consciousness and her deep continuing interest in African art.
