LIZA LOU: "Color Field" (2010-2013)
Liza Lou is an American artist who is known for her meticulous, painstaking work affixing beads and other small objects that then create a larger, more complex whole. Using two and a half million beads her installation Color Field took an army of assistants weeks to string the beads with wire two create the individual pylons. Her newest floor-bound sculpture, features an expansive prism of color. The gridded rainbow is composed of uniform lengths of wire, each threaded with a single shade of beads. The sheer expanse of the piece conveys exuberance, underscored by the work’s bounty: its multitude of colors, beads, and touch. Pulsing and pixelated, "Color Field’s" complex mosaic foregrounds its construction and the network of hands which helped shape it.
