Sol LeWitt
Documented citizenships : United States
Born in Hartford in 1928 and died in New York in 2007, Sol LeWitt was an American artist whose practice brings together systems of composition and their material realisation. His work proceeds from simple numerical sequences; his sculptures, wall paintings and prints often present every possible combination of their basic elements. From 1968 onwards, his wall drawings were executed directly on walls, where systematised patterns and lines explore the relationship between art and space.
Teams of trained assistants build, print or paint his works; the artist’s written instructions generally form part of the finished work. Among the documented works, Curvy Brushstrokes (1997) is a gouache on cardboard measuring 38 × 28.5 cm; its entry records a confirmation from Sofia LeWitt, conveyed by email via Pace Gallery in 2017. His drawings, prints, paintings and sculptures are represented in the collections of major museums around the world.
This profile brings together identity references for Sol LeWitt and paintings, drawings and works on paper documented in auction catalogues.
