Flat Top Pyramid with Colors Superimposed, 1988

Two silkscreens in 20 and 23 colors on Arches Cover rag paper, 76 x 241 cm. Edition: 30 (+ 5 A.P. + 2 P.P. + 3 H.C.), signed and numbered. 

In this edition, Sol LeWitt structures an unusually elongated horizontal format with a centrally positioned hexagonal mastaba – a flattened pyramid that stands out distinctly from the background through its reduced use of color. The expansive empty spaces on either side of the geometric form enhance the sense of volume and depth, creating an almost meditative spatial experience. In a determined continuation of his conceptual practice, LeWitt explores the interplay between form and space, surface and illusion. The radical reduction of means reveals a quiet complexity in which perception becomes an active, meaning-generating force.
