"Sol LeWitt: A Retrospective"
2000-07-22 until 2000-10-22
Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago
Chicago, IL, USA

The first comprehensive survey of LeWitt's work since 1978, this retrospective presents more than 200 works by this leading pioneer of conceptual art. It includes wall drawings, large outdoor pieces, and works on paper, photographs, and books from all phases of LeWitt's four-decade career.

LeWitt's work strikes a delicate balance between perceptual and conceptual qualities; between dedication to the simplicity and order of geometry and his pursuit of visual beauty and intuitive creation; and between authorship and anonymity. Above all, LeWitt's work exists in the space between the artist's conception and the viewer's reception; it depends upon the viewer's sensory responses for its completion.
