Arranged in \"situations,\" he would then further develop them into series and large-scale installations. His pieces often included dedications, making reference in their titles to concrete events, such as wartime atrocities or police violence, or to other artists. The colors and dimensions of the materials he used were prescribed by industrial production. Flooded in light, viewers themselves become part of the works. The space, along with the objects within it, are set in relation to each other and thus become immersive experiences of art, triggering sensual, almost spiritual experiences. Flavin liberated color from the two-dimensionality of painting. This catalog looks at Flavin's oeuvre in a less familiar setting: the indoor and outdoor spaces of the Kunstmuseum Basel. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dan Flavin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Walther Konig Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/19\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 9.40w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783753306094","brand":"Walther Konig Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43784483537033,"sku":"9783753306094","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_59110f8f-3938-4155-b384-c94ee19820a6.jpg?v=1742272588","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/dan-flavin-dedications-in-lights-9783753306094","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
