Exhibits & Special Events
The Panza Collection: An Experience of Color and
Light
November 16, 2007 - February 28, 2008
Described by some as a
“modernist Medici,” Count Panza’s collection of contemporary art,
especially
works of art from mid-20th century, mirrors that of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery and has
been the impetus this exhibition.
Organized by Albright-Knox Senior Curator Doug Dreishpoon, it
will
include approximately 75 works by 17 American artists represented in
the Panza
Collection. Color and light were the key
concepts used to plan this exhibition, which will consist of paintings,
sculptures, and artists’ installations. Beginning with artworks by
pioneers in
the use of actual light from
the 1960s -- fluorescent light in works by Dan Flavin; Bruce Nauman’s
use of
neon light; and the ethereal natural and artificial light installations
of
James Turrell -- the exhibition continues to the present with the
visual light
embodied in monochromatic paintings and sculptures by such artists as
David
Simpson, Phil Sims, and Anne Truitt.
