Synopsis

When James Turrell created his first light projection in 1967, he broke new ground in a way that would decisively influence his generation and the development of art. Although he was working in the contemporary context of minimal art, there are categorical differences that distinguish his unique position in art right up to the present. "The Other Horizon" uses representative works by Turrell to show phases in his preoccupation with the many forms of light. The American artist worked for more than 20 years to bring together his earlier work groups and the powerful light phenomena of nature that are beyond human control. A separate chapter is devoted to Turrell's various architectural projects, such as the light installations in Leipzig and Bregenz. These interact with exterior climate conditions and transform the buidings into beautiful sculptural bodies.
