The artwork, “Sangre,” created by John McCracken in 2001, is a sculpture representative of the Light and Space art movement. This piece exemplifies minimalist aesthetics and a profound usage of light and space, characteristic of McCracken’s oeuvre.
“Sangre” features a sleek, vertically elongated rectangular form, meticulously crafted to achieve a highly reflective, polished surface. The sculpture’s rich, deep red hue evokes a sense of warmth and intensity, enhancing the minimalist yet profound impact. The symmetry and clean lines of the sculpture emphasize its simple yet powerful geometric form, inviting viewers to engage with their own perceptions of light, color, and space. The artwork’s smooth finish reflects its surroundings, further adding to its interactive and immersive qualities.
