Staying cool with Sol LeWitt at PAM

sol_scaffold.jpg

A little bird with the voice of a grizzly bear (aka Chief Curator Bruce Guenther) has let PORT's readers know about a cool Sol LeWitt wall drawing in process using a massive scaffold (starting today):

"As part of the Summer of Drawing the Modern and Contemporary Art Department is going to complicate everyone's life with a 6-day live-action drawing event in the Schnitzer Sculpture Court from July 9 to 14.

An artist-trained technician from the Sol LeWitt Foundation, Nobuto Suga will be on site drawing every day from 10 to 5.

A small group of LeWitt works will round out the experience after the scaffolding comes out of the court July 16th.

The drawing will be on view through September 19."

I'll also remind everyone that as a climate controlled environment the museum is air conditioned and open late tonight. I hope they document the process as it's just as fascinating as the end product.
