Ad Reinhardt

"The presentation, titled Color Out of Darkness, will feature Reinhardt’s paintings illuminated by a lighting concept conceived by Turrell, whose pioneering investigations of light, color, space, and perception have been greatly influenced by Reinhardt’s practice and legacy, in particular his "red," "blue," "white," and "black" paintings. As part of the exhibition, a new Wedgework installation by Turrell will be on view on the first floor of the gallery. [...] With this exhibition, Turrell presents an homage to Reinhardt as an experiential artist, and his designs of the rooms within the presentation can be considered new works. As curator, Turrell has cultivated a scenography for this show that beckons viewers into the depths of Reinhardt’s abstractions. Turrell’s experimentations with light create otherworldly, immersive experiences for viewers of Reinhardt’s paintings, forging connections between the two artists across time and space"--Exhibition website.
