Who determines what constitutes a work of art? Thatâs the question at the center of an appeal, which has garnered national attention, before the village of Kinderhookâs Zoning Board of Appeals tonight. A public hearing will take place at 7 p.m. via Zoom. Board members will be asked to rule on whether Nick Caveâs artwork, âTruth Be Told,â is a sign and, therefore, subject to local code, which limits and sometimes prohibits banners, billboards and signs. âTruth Be Toldâ was installed Oct. 31 and is scheduled to be on display in Kinderhook through Sunday. âTruth Be Told,â spelled out in 21-foot-high black graphic film letters that stretch 160 feet across the brick façade of The School â itâs a cultural center owned by New York City gallerist Jack Shainman â was created by Cave and design partner Bob Faust as âa pointed antidote to a presidency known for propaganda that disguises truth and history to present racist and nativist ideology as patriotismâ with the intention of âsparking conversations of personal interpretations of truth and integrity.â
