White Cube gallery in London has recently opened its fourth solo show centred around Larry Bell, an artist widely associated with the California ‘Light and Space’ movement. A selection of the process-based works that have come to define Bell's stylistic signature are on display, ranging from three early coated glass installations to more recent ‘Vapor Drawings’ on paper. The newest pieces, produced in 2014, come in the form of his ‘Light Knot’ sculptures that are made from “pliable, vacuum coated, curvaceously-shaped sheets of polyester film” and suspended in transparent cases. This exhibition begs to be seen in person, addressing the apparent concerns with light’s relation to an intensely treated surface and what phenomena that process conjures.
