James Turrell is an American artist concerned with light and space. He has worked directly with light and space to create artworks that engage viewers with the limits and wonder of human perception. Turrell an avid pilot who has logged over 12,000 hours flying, considers the sky as his studio, material and canvas.
"I make spaces that apprehend light for our perception, and in some ways gather it, or seem to hold it... my work is about your seeing than it is about my seeing, although it is a product of my seeing"
James Turrell
- His work is very modernist due to its formalist and minimal qualities.
- I like how he uses light as a medium alone to create art which is interesting and interactive.
