MASTERS

Starting from the simple but radical new idea that an artwork’s concept is more important than its form, Sol LeWitt helped revolutionize the definition of art in the 1960s.

LeWitt created seemingly simple geometric sculptures and drawings and later designed colourful and exuberant wall paintings. Employing a team of assistants to execute his work; LeWitt designed and conceived of the idea for an artwork, but left others to carry out the materliaistion of the idea. Reducing art to a few basic shapes, colours and types of lines which were arranged according to guidelines and instructions.
