"Site Plan with Projected Section and Survey Net" mylar drawing Roden Crater

Located in Phoenix, AZ
James Turrell
Site Plan with Projected Section and Survey Net, 1992
mylar, beeswax, emulsion, ink, liquitex, wax pastel
41.5" x 60.5" framed
Unique
Since the 1960s, James Turrell has experimented with visual perception and the materiality of light. Early in his career, he was associated with the Light and Space movement in Southern California and participated in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art’s landmark 1967-1971 project Art and Technology, which paired artists with emerging industries and technologies of the period.
Interested in sensory deprivation and the Ganzfeld effect, his light defined shapes, skyspaces framing the sky, and built environments of horizon-less saturated color provoke a reflexive state that the artist has described as “seeing yourself seeing” – a state in which the viewer is aware of the functioning of their senses and recognizes light as a tangible substance. Since 1979, Turrell has been constructing his magnum opus at the Roden Crater...

Artisti biography
Christo Javacheff was born in 1935 in Gabrova, in Communist Bulgaria. Dropping his surname, Christo studied at the Fine Arts Academy in Sofia (1953–56) before defecting to the West, via Prague, in 1957. That year, he spent one semester at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Vienna and moved to Paris in 1958 where he met his future wife and artistic collaborator, Moroccan-born Jeanne-Claude de Guillebon (d. 2009).
Indebted to Vladimir Tatlin's Constructivist edict "real materials in real space," Christo's first artworks, dating from 1958, consist of appropriated everyday objects such as bottles, cans...

Andy Warhol Last Supper Bearbrick 400% (Warhol BE@RBRICK 400%)
By (after) Andy Warhol
Located in NEW YORK, NY
Andy Warhol Last Supper Bearbrick Vinyl Figures: Set of two (400% & 100%):
A unique, timeless collectible trademarked & licensed by the Estate of Andy Warhol. The partnered collectible reveals Warhol's iconic Last Supper imagery wrapping the figure in its entirety. Housed in a standout Warhol collectors box. Sold out & out of print; scarce.
Medium: Vinyl Figurine. Year: 2019.
Set of two figurines. Dimensions of larger piece: 11 x 5 inches.
Condition: New in its original packaging.
Warhol foundation trademark featured on lower left of reverse.
Published by Medicom from a sold out edition of unknown.
Further Background:
BE@RBRICKs are a form of collectible toy that resemble a cross between LEGO and well, a bear. These block-style figurines boast teddy bear-style heads that have become an integral pillar of the collectible toy scene. In fact, it wouldn’t be so far-fetched to say that it almost single-handedly carved out the fad of toy collecting in modern times, treading the very fine line between toy and art. Since its inception, BE@RBRICKs have become one of the most recognizable characters in the world, and some of the most sought after.
Andy Warhol Last Supper:
Executed just a year before Andy Warhol’s death in February 1987, the Last Supper is a powerful work touches upon the themes of mortality and religion - themes close to Warhol's heart.
The idea for a group of works based on Leonardo’s Renaissance masterpiece was presented to Warhol in 1984 by Milan-based gallerist Alexander Iolas.
