The artwork, titled “Cobalt Wedge,” was created by artist Peter Alexander in 1970. It is a sculpture belonging to the Light and Space art movement.
This sculpture presents a towering, slender form characterized by its minimalistic design. The “Cobalt Wedge” features a sleek, elongated structure that appears to converge toward a vanishing point as it ascends. The artwork employs a gradient of cobalt blue, adeptly capturing and manipulating light to enhance its ethereal presence. The shape and coloration of the sculpture evoke a sense of calm and introspection, adhering to the principles of the Light and Space movement, which emphasizes perceptual phenomena through the interplay of light, volume, and space.
