克雷格·考夫曼(Craig Kauffman)高清作品《无题（从循环系列）》

作品名：无题（从循环系列）

艺术家：克雷格·考夫曼

年代：1969

风格：光与空间

类型：装置

介质：漆

20世纪60年代，洛杉矶的艺术家开始使用工业材料，如有机玻璃丙烯酸片材、玻璃纤维和热固性塑料，以及汽车工业所青睐的丙烯酸漆，来创作作品。在克雷格·考夫曼1969年的《环路》系列作品中，每幅作品都包括一片有机玻璃，艺术家在顶部将其模制成一个环形折叠，然后喷涂有细微等级的丙烯酸涂料。悬挂在离墙几英寸的链条上，物体似乎在盘旋，其表面的颜色也出现在作品投射在墙后的阴影中。虽然考夫曼的环路代表了他对颜色和工业材料的不断探索，但它们展示的现象学性质使它们接近极简主义，因为它们开始定义在20世纪60年代后半期。

Title:Untitled (from the Loops series)

artist:Craig Kauffman

Date:1969

Style:Light and Space

Genre:installation

Media:lacquer

In the 1960s, artists in Los Angeles began to create works using industrial materials such as Plexiglas acrylic sheeting, fiberglass, and thermoset plastics that set and hardened into shape, as well as the acrylic lacquers favored by the automotive industry. In Craig Kauffman’s Loops series of 1969, each work comprises a sheet of Plexiglas that the artist molded into a looping fold at its top then sprayed with subtle gradations of acrylic paint. Hanging suspended from a chain a few inches from the wall, the objects seem to hover, and the color on their surface appears also in the shadows the work casts on the wall behind. Though Kauffman’s loops represent his continued exploration of color and of industrial materials, the phenomenological nature of their display brings them close to minimalism as it began to be defined in the second half of the 1960s.
