During the 1960s and 1970s, a loosely affiliated group of Los
Angeles artists--including Larry Bell, Mary Corse, Robert Irwin,
James Turrell, and Doug Wheeler--more intrigued by questions of
perception than by the crafting of discrete objects, embraced light
as their primary medium. Whether by directing the flow of natural
light, embedding artificial light within objects or architecture,
or playing with light through the use of reflective, translucent,
or transparent materials, each of these artists created situations
capable of stimulating heightened sensory awareness in the
receptive viewer. "Phenomenal: California Light, Space, Surface,"
companion book to the exhibition of the same name, explores and
documents the unique traits of the phenomenologically engaged work
produced in Southern California during those decades and traces its
ongoing influence on current generations of international artists.
