Mel Bochner’s latest exploration of his iconic Thesaurus works, shows the artist achieving unprecedented physicality and material experimentation. Utilizing techniques developed at Two Palms, each work in this new series is rendered entirely as one piece of cast and pigmented paper, the text jutting out toward the viewer. The depth of the text rendered sculpturally in the paper allows the artist to use light and shadow in such a way that they become part of the work, manipulating the paper’s colors.
