Description
A member of the Light and Space movement that includes James Turrell, Robert Irwin, and Doug Wheeler, Helen Pashgian has explored the effects of light and space in both oil paintings and sculpture for more than four decades. The untitled gallery-sized installation featured in Helen Pashgian: Light Invisible is a major statement by the artist. An immense series of moulded acrylic columns fills an entire gallery, allowing viewers to walk past, around and between the columnar forms, inviting meditations on the nature of materials and light. Surveying Pashgian's entire career, this book also features spectacular new photographs of the installation as well as an interview with the artist that delves into Pashgian's fascination with the luminous properties of artistic materials.
