Who’s Afraid of Red, Yellow and Blue3, Robert Irwin, 2007 — Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego
Yesterday I posted about Richard Serra’s 1974-75 piece Delineator. Blogger Tyler Moore got in touch to point out that for the ongoing Robert Irwin retrospective at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, Irwin has produced what might just be in part an homage to that piece. Or maybe you could call it a three color conflation of Serra and Barnett Newman, who did the original Who’s Afraid… canvases back in the 1960s.
UPDATE: Tyler Moore? The blogger I was referring to up there is Tyler Green. Tyler Moore, of course, is that blogger who lives in Minneapolis and is always throwing her hat in the air.
By the way, this blog will be on holiday til Monday. I plan to spend much of the next few days contending with the after dinner effects of tryptophane.
