Sol LeWitt

Sol LeWitt was a pioneering American artist known for his work in conceptual and minimalist art. He focused on ideas and geometry rather than traditional craftsmanship, often creating instructions or plans for others to execute, emphasizing the concept over the finished piece. His large-scale wall drawings, sculptures, and geometric forms challenge viewers to consider pattern, structure, and the relationship between idea and object. LeWitt’s approach shifted the art world’s focus toward intellectual engagement, highlighting that the concept behind art can be as important as the physical work itself.
