James Turrell at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park

Check out the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, next time you are in/near Wakefield. They have, in the Underground Gallery, 3 pieces by James Turrell. His work centres around light:
My desire is to set up a situation to which I can take you and let you see. I am interested in light because of my interest in our spiritual nature and the things that empower us. My art deals with light itself, not as the bearer of revelation, but as revelation itself.
This is Turrell’s first extensive gallery project in Britain outside London and gives an insight into his extraordinary practice. Check it out: Link
