Amazing light installation by American light artist James Turrell in Bridget’s Bardo (Ganzfeld Piece) exhibition.
In collaboration with the Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg, James Turrell has created his largest-ever walk-in light installation in a museum context: an 11-metre-high, ‘space within a space’ structure that covers a floor area of 700 square meters and reaches up to the glass roof of the museum. Turrell’s “Ganzfeld Piece: Bridget’s Bardo” is a hollow construction divided into two parts. The two interconnecting chambers ‘the Viewing Space’ and the ‘Sensing Space’ are both completely empty and – a new feature of this type of work – flooded with slowly changing colored light.
James Turrell is a visionary. I'm always impressed by his work. I wish I could have experienced that in person, but luckily there is a phenomenal contemporary art piece of his at PhxArt that I love and can see all the time.
