The Light and Space Movement
0:01:58
During the 1960s and 1970s, a number of Southern California artists—inspired by the local physical, social, and technological environments—experimented with perceptual and phenomenological concerns. Often grouped as “light and space” and “finish fetish” artists, their work utilized high-tech materials, particularly plastics, resins, and coated glass.
