James Turrell has been working with light for over 20 years. His Rodan Crater Project has been called America’s Sistine Chapel. To fund it he also makes what he was originally known for: Light Installations of exquisite and ethereal beauty. Legend has it that his installation at the Stedelijk Museum dropped people to their knees. Unfortunately you will not be seeing them at Pace but if you head over to PS1 he has a permanent installation you can spend all day with.
