Traditionally, yearly one exhibition at iCOON honours minimal artists from the 60ties of the last century. This year it is Sol LeWitt.
Together with Marleen van Wijngaarden, founder of Rotterdam-based Murals Inc., iCOON selected the following artists/designers: Nanna van Heest, Jelmer Noordeman, Ropp Schouten, and Sigmund de Jong.
They will create one or more murals, both indoors and outdoors. Joep Brouwer was the fifth artist to be asked to create a connection between the four spaces of iCOON with his sculptures. The result is a contemporary tribute by five artists and designers to Sol LeWitt, whose art also included murals and sculptures.
Sol LeWitt
Solomon "Sol" LeWitt (September 9, 1928 – April 8, 2007) was an American artist linked to various movements, including conceptual art and minimalism. LeWitt came to fame in the late 1960s with his wall drawings and "structures" (a term he preferred to "sculptures") but was prolific in a wide range of media including drawing, printmaking, photography, painting, installation, and artist's books. He has been the subject of hundreds of solo exhibitions in museums and galleries around the world since 1965.
