Mary CORSE (b. 1945)

 
The essential and dramatic declaration “Let there be light” of Genesis is not so far removed from Mary Corse’s recollection of the moment in 1968 when the late afternoon sun electrified the reflective road markings of Malibu as she drove east. In an instant, the glowing asphalt markings provided the oracle she needed to realize she could ‘put light in the painting and not just make a picture of light’.  Using the same glass microbeads utilized by road maintenance services, she layers and embeds the prismatic material in bands and geometric configurations creating nuanced glimmering abstract fields which shift as the viewer moves in relationship to the work. Move to one side and dimness brightens to light. Walk back and forth and you might feel a rippling effect from its shimmering, prismatic effects.<br><br>A photographic image of a Mary Corse microsphere painting is not only a dull representation, but it also misses the point – it is experience dependent art that requires participation to ‘be’.  Of course, “Untitled” (1975) defies that one-point static perspective and instead, depends upon a real time, interactive art experience which heightens awareness of the body in space as the viewer experiences shifts of retinal stimulation, sensation and feeling. It is a rare bird.  Unusually petite at two-foot square, its design, geometry and color belie her earlier revelation that led to a devotion to her usual reductive palette. Instead, it is a bold statement in sequined color, its center field bounded at the corners by a sparkling red stepped motif that separates it from its starry night sky corner spandrels. It may not include a star motif, but it has the glamour and presence that belongs along Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.

创世纪》中 "要有光 "的基本和戏剧性的宣言与玛丽-科斯对1968年那一刻的回忆相差无几,当时她驾车向东行驶时,午后的阳光使马里布的反光路标通电。在一瞬间,发光的沥青标记提供了她所需要的神谕,使她意识到她可以 "把光放在绘画中,而不仅仅是制作一幅光的画"。 她使用道路维护服务所使用的相同的玻璃微珠,将棱镜材料分层嵌入到带状和几何配置中,创造出细微的闪光的抽象领域,随着观众与作品的关系移动而变化。移动到一边,昏暗就会变成光明。来回走动,你可能会感觉到其闪烁的棱镜效果带来的涟漪。

,玛丽-科尔斯微球画的摄影图片不仅是一种沉闷的表现,而且还忽略了一点--它是依赖于经验的艺术,需要参与 "存在"。 当然,"无题"(1975年)违背了这种一点一滴的静态视角,而是依赖于一种实时、互动的艺术体验,在观众体验视网膜刺激、感觉和感受的转变时,提高了对空间中身体的认识。这是一只罕见的鸟。 它的设计、几何形状和颜色都异常娇小,两英尺见方,掩盖了她早期的启示,导致了她对通常的还原性调色板的投入。相反,它是一个大胆的声明,采用了亮片颜色,其中心领域在四角以闪亮的红色阶梯式图案为界,将其与角部的星空窗台分开。它可能不包括一个明星图案,但它有属于好莱坞星光大道的魅力和存在感。
