Cubed: In/Outside The Box
Since my Artist Talk back in mid-March I’ve managed to decompress by obtaining my very own copy of Sol Lewitt: Incomplete Cubes (MIT Press). It’s an invaluable resource for this series, and the work of this great man. Though, I have to say I’m glad it came late and didn’t traverse my mindset as it covers the work from every angle - and I was shooting from the hip of my own perspective. By climbing into the open side of the cube I broke bread with the logic of artistic physics, and entered into a place of both containment and belonging. The blog fiftytwopieces picked up on and ran with that (March 12-18). In the picture above (©Portland Art Museum) Michael Knutson stands at far left and will be the next guest artist in the series.
