“Wall-Floor Slab” is an artwork created by Robert Morris in 1964, exemplifying the Minimalism art movement. This piece falls under the installation genre, showcasing the artist’s distinctive approach to form and space.
The artwork is characterized by its simplicity and geometric precision. It features a large, rectangular slab that leans against the intersection of a wall and the floor. The clean lines and smooth surface of the slab reflect the minimalist ethos, emphasizing the purity of shape and the interplay between the object and its environment. The neutral color palette further accentuates the starkness and the emphasis on form over decorative elements. The installation invites viewers to consider the relationship between the physical object and the space it occupies, challenging traditional notions of sculpture and art presentation.
