James Turrell Skyspace: Light Reign July 31, 2008

The long awaited James Turrell Skyspace, 'Light Reign,' was unveiled to the public in July of 2003. Since then, it has been the site of numerous meditation sessions, a Quaker silent meeting, a performance art piece, an audio installation by artist Steve Roden, and thousands of individual visits. Combining architecture, sculpture, and atmosphere, the work is not only a spectacular addition to the museum's permanent collection, it is also now an important part of the building's architecture.
