James Turrell: Pleiades

You approach the gallery through an inclined corridor so dark that you are virtually without sight. At the top of the ramp, you sit in a chair and face blackness. After your eyes adjust, an amorphous sphere of grey-white, or perhaps red, begins to appear, more a presence than an object. As you look harder, the form becomes smaller. You turn away for a moment and back again. It grows and glimmers. But the source of light itself is constant and still. Pleiades is a long-term installation. Please note that this is a 15-minute, timed experience. Time slots are issued on a first-come, first-served basis at the exhibition entrance on the second floor of 500 Sampsonia Way.
