The California-based Light and Space movement of the 1960s and 70s (to which James Turrell belongs) is so fascinating to me - an ever-unfolding landscape of work I love discovering and learning more about. A recent find for me is LA artist Peter Alexander's luminous resin sculptures which seem to be crafted from colored (negative) space and light itself. So cool! These pieces are certainly very much about the way that light strikes their surfaces in a certain space - so I'm sure seeing them in person is an entirely different animal - but I think these images evoke a good deal of the magic, genius, and subtlety of Alexander's work.
