| Isometric Figure with Bars of Color presents colorful,
bold, geometric structures on a clear red field. The bright primary
colors explode beyond the exaggerated perspective of an incomplete
open cube and the intense red background sets off the bright, strong
colors that race and expand at the bottom of the foreground.
Born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1928, Sol LeWitt has a distinguished
40-year career as a leading practitioner of Conceptual art. His
popularity is derived from his colorful floor-to-ceiling wall paintings
of trapezoids, step-shapes, cubes, stars, and rainbows. His portfolio
also includes wall drawings, sculptures, photographic series, limited-edition
prints and drawings. He attended the Cartoonists and Illustrators
School in New York and worked as a graphic designer for architect
I.M. Pei while he started painting.
Sol LeWitt has exhibited internationally and his works hang in the
Guggenheim Museum, the Museum of Modern Art, Dia:Beacon, the National
Gallery of Art, and the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden as
well as many others.
