Peter Alexander

1939–2020

Artist Peter Alexander has long been associated with Southern California's Light and Space movement. He rose to prominence in the 1960s alongside artists such as Donald Judd and Larry Bell, exploring the fundamentals of color and form unto themselves to produce sculptures of lasting substance that have a composed, joyful presence. Alexander's cast resin and urethane boxes, bars and wedges were spectacularly dense in color, pristine in their surfaces and enthralling to behold. Much of his sense of light and space was inspired by surfing and the colors and qualities of the ocean, sky and shore.

I'm a romantic. I believe in the value of things. I believe that objects can be made that can have an extraordinary effect on me and others.
