3.0 out of 5 stars
Not much Turrell here...,
By Budd Boetticher "buddboetticher" (New York, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: James Turrell: A Life in Light (Hardcover)
I am a huge fan of James Turrell's work and was disappointed when this arrived in the mail and I realized that fully half of its size is given over to a double-page-binding technique that adds no text or imagery, but simply plain orange pages, to no clear effect. For every page of text or illustration there is a "blank" orange page attached to it. Not only does this seem a bit wasteful, it makes the book unwieldy to thumb through. Also, the admittedly beautiful die-cut cover will tear almost immediately. At least mine did--as soon as I put it on the shelf with other books. And I say this as someone who has hitchhiked across several states to see exhibitions of JT's work. I haven't yet found the perfect book on Turrell, but there must be a better one out there than this.
