| 説明 | Sol LeWitt's "Four Sided Pyramid" at National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------From the early 1960s to the present, Sol LeWitt has been at the forefront of minimal and conceptual art. LeWitt's "structures" (a term he prefers to sculpture) are generally composed with modular, quasi-architectural forms. For many of his works, LeWitt creates a plan and a set of instructions to be executed by others. Four-Sided Pyramid was constructed on this site by a team of engineers and stone masons in collaboration with the artist. The terraced pyramid, first employed by LeWitt in the 1960s, relates to the setback design that had long been characteristic of New York City skyscrapers. Its geometric structure also alludes to the ziggurats of ancient Mesopotamia.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Sol LeWitt Dies at age 78 Sol LeWitt (1928–2007), one of the most important artistic voices of the last four decades, conceived of "the artist as a thinker and originator of ideas rather than as a craftsman." He was an originator of conceptual art, in which the work of art—typically an installation rather than an art object in the conventional sense—is either incarnated by language alone or produced according to the artist's written instructions. For LeWitt, the pursuit of art's intellectual, rather than emotive, foundation was also in keeping with the artist's own deep-seated personal modesty. |
