Dan Flavin
"monument" on the survival of Mrs. Reppin, 1966
Warm white and red fluorescent light
light in three dimensions moves to line in three dimensions
Fred Sandback
Blue Corner Piece, 1970
Blue Elastic Cord
line and illusion give way to layers of color
Robert Smithson
Glass Stratum, 1967
Glass
repetition radiates from and toward a center
Robert Smithson
A Nonsite, Pine Barrens, New Jersey
1968 (nonsite)
Painted aluminum, sand, and painted wood
Robert Smithson
Gyrostasis, 1967
Painted steel
would have been nice to see this work as isolated object, the way Spiral Jetty, for example, works in Utah; this constellation of works certainly underscores the dialogue between spatial event, artwork, and representation concerns
an odd framing device of the moment
difficult not to consider Heizer out the window in relationship to the works and the show itself
Robert Grosvenor
Untitled (yellow), 1966/2016
aluminum and expoxy paint
frozen beam of symbolic light gives way to cerebral motion; a different kind of levity
Marcel Duchamp
From or by Marcel Duchamp or Rrose Selavy (The Box in a Valise), 1935-41
Paper, board, and mixed media
open-mind and dingy tinge of collected pictorial plays;
blacks and whites gives way to inter-dimension
Lee Bontecou
Untitled, 1960
Welded metal, canvas, and wire relief
Charles Frazier
Albion, 1962
Wood and canvas
Duchamp, Bontecou and Frazer seeking to understand surface and contact based on proximity (viewing distance)
Jean Tinguely
Odessa, 1963
Scrap, forged iron, wheel, electronic motor, and black paint
color or rather the suggested absence of color in forms;
speaking of color and form, this Liz Larner work came to mind
Ad Reinhardt
Ultimate Painting, 1963
Oil on canvas
Color as a material and a visual/perceptual problem as it pertains to direct viewing and photographic representations such as these (my concern more than the actual concern of the works themselves save notions of absence and limitlessness)
Yves Klein
Untitled Pink Monochrome, 1961
Dry pigment and synthetic resin on gauze mounted on panel
