Dan Flavin: Constructed Light + The Light Project

TOKY Branding + Design, St. Louis, Missouri, 2008

Description

The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts is housed in a Tadao Ando–designed concrete complex in St. Louis’s arts core. Their installation of renowned light artist Dan Flavin would be one of the largest exhibitions of his work since his death. Flavin’s art is necessarily site-specific, so TOKY and the show’s curators worked hand in hand to determine how best to present the work online. Rather than simply showing the work, we opted for a more exploratory experience, helping the viewer understand the art in the context of Ando’s architecture. 

Juror Notes

The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts has done a great job of bringing the exhibition to life online. The art is experimental and ephemeral; the site captures these qualities effectively.
