A towering vertical column of fluorescent light reaches eight feet into the air, bathing its surroundings in an ethereal blend of blue, yellow, and pink hues. Dan Flavin's precise use of commercially available light tubes transforms ordinary industrial materials into a meditative and luminous sculptural presence. The merging colors cast soft, overlapping washes of light onto the surrounding walls and floor, dissolving the boundaries between object and environment.
