Sinopsis

In 1967, when 23-year-old James Turrell created his first light projection, he broke new ground in a way that would decisively influence his generation and the development of art. Although he was working in the contemporary context of minimal art and the Earthwork movement, there are categorical differences that distinguish his unique position in art right up to the present. The Other Horizon uses representative works by Turrell to show the individual phases of development in his preoccupation with the phenomenon of light - from the first Projection Pieces to his Roden Crater Projects, in which he has been working for more than 20 years to bring together his carlier work groups and the powerful light phenomena of nature. A separate chapter is devoted to Turrell's various architectural projects, such as the light installations in Leipzig and Bregenz that transform the buildings into translucent sculptural bodies.

Reseña del editor

In 1967, when 23-year old James Turrell created his first light projection, he broke new ground in a way that would decisively influence his generation and the development of art. Though Turrell worked in the context of Minimalism and the Earthwork movement, his art at this early stage displayed--as it still does--a sensibility all its own. This book reveals the ways in which Turrell's art has developed, and offers an extensive overview of his work from its earliest stages to the present. Turrell is above all preoccupied with the phenomenon of light--and his architectural projects and installations often transform their surroundings into transluscent sculptural bodies. From his first Projection Pieces to the Roden Crater Project in the Arizona desert, this volume presents over 30 years of this seminal artist's work, and includes critical essays by Daniel Birnbaum, Georges Didi-Hubermann, Michael Rotondi, and Paul Virilio.
