Samantha Irby Gets High on Light

Arts


Abbi brings her friend the hilarious essayist Samantha Irby to MoMA PS1 to see one of the trippiest works they’ve ever experienced: “Meeting” by James Turrell. Turrell’s work is immersive, mind-blowing, deeply moving -- and made entirely of light. Turns out, light can really mess with your eyes! And that’s what artists like Turrell and Dan Flavin, are all about. Also featuring: Peter Eleey and Flavin Judd Learn more about James Turrell's Meeting here Check out a time-lapse video of the Dan Flavin from the Judd Foundation's 101 Spring Street here Dan Flavin. untitled (to the "innovator" of Wheeling Peachblow). 1968.
