JAMES TURRELL

Dawning

“Dawning” (1992) is the only work in the collection that is permanently on show at Magasin 3 Stockholm Konsthall. It was installed in 1994 during a solo exhibition of James Turrell’s work and is the artist’s only permanently installed work in Scandinavia. Turrell explores effects of light and space that speak to the viewer without words by impacting the body and the senses. His work is experiential while allowing us to actively perceive and relate to our sense of sight. Read more
