I can spend hours just doing nothing in this room. And yet, there’s so much to do, so many ways of doing the small things this room requires. How to sit? Where to sit? How long do you sit? What do you look at? Do you focus on the sky? Do you watch the people tap away on their phones? Doing nothing is never nothing. “One of artist #JamesTurrell’s celebrated #Skyspaces, #Meeting is a site-specific installation that invites viewers to gaze upwards toward an unobstructed view of the #sky. A key representative of the “Light and Space” movement centered in #LosAngeles during the 1960s, James Turrell creates works of art that consist primarily of #light, exploring fundamental questions about the nature of #human #perception by rendering #tangible the #act of #vision. Meeting was the second Skyspace that Turrell constructed and the first in the #UnitedStates—becoming a prototype for the many subsequent such works he would construct over the following decades. Originally commissioned in 1976 by @momaps1 founder #AlannaHeiss for the museum’s inaugural exhibition, the work was not realized until #1980, and #Turrell continued to make modifications until it opened to the public in 1986. In 2016, after a renovation that replaced the original seating and added a new multi-colored lighting program synchronized with the #sunrise and #sunset, Meeting entered the collection of @themuseumofmodernart . Meeting is located on the northern side of #MoMAPS1’s third floor. Access is included with gallery admission during regular museum hours. Please note that capacity is limited and seating is on a first-come, first-served basis. Visitors are encouraged to monitor the weather and dress accordingly. Meeting will be closed in the case of #rain, #snow, or other inclement #weather.” (at Meeting By James Turrell) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdO07BtFrmD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

James Turrel - Skyspaces

James Turrel est un artiste américain né en 1943. Il travaille toujours les liens entre espace, architecture et lumière. Ses installations troublent le regard du spectateur, qui souvent ne voit plus les limites de la salle où il installe son oeuvre. 

Il a réalisé de nombreux “Skyspaces”, des espaces très minimaux mêlant installations lumineuses et cadrage sur le ciel, permettant au spectateur de se plonger dans une ambiance en changement permanent, au libre cours de la météo.

Un travail extrêmement puissant, immergeant le visiteur dans une ambiance vraiment particulière, détachée de tout élément externe. Ambiance qu’il vit dans un mood méditatif, à contempler le ciel tel un tableau mouvant à travers un cadre. 

A découvrir!
