The artwork titled “Untitled (Triangular Columns)” was created by Mary Corse in 1965 and belongs to the Light and Space art movement. This installation piece exemplifies a genre of art that engages viewers through its spatial and light-manipulating properties.
The artwork features three sleek, triangular columns standing vertically in what appears to be a gallery space. The columns, emanating a sense of serene minimalism, are stark white, creating a striking contrast against the neutral-toned floor. The simplicity of form and color in the columns invites contemplation of light and perspective, hallmarks of the Light and Space movement. The precise geometric shapes and unembellished surfaces of the columns emphasize the transformative interplay of light across their surfaces, engaging the viewer in a dynamic visual experience.
