For over six decades, Larry Bell has been fascinated with light. He works across many mediums – including furniture, installation and drawing. But above all, Bell is most celebrated for his iconic glass-cube sculptures. They have become a go-to for light art. He has influenced fellow sculptors like minimalist Donald Judd to light and space artist Peter Alexander from the 1960s. Bell’s unique process is at the heart of this. In particular, he works with an industrial technique called Thermal Evaporation. This places metallic film onto the glass, creating the illusionistic effect Bell is known for.
