Just in time for the upcoming presidential election, artist Zoe Leonard's I want a president, installed on the High Line under the Standard Hotel through November 17, 2016, is a "poignant portrait of the cultural and political climate in the early ‘90s in New York City with words that still resonate today." Leonard wrote I want a president in 1992 in the same year that poet Eileen Myles ran for president as an independent candidate alongside George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Ross Perot. Leonard admits that I want a president is not the text that she would write today, but says: “I am interested in the space this text opens up for us to imagine and voice what we want in our leaders, and even beyond that, what we can envision for the future of our society. I still think that speaking up is itself a vital and powerful political act.”
