Verified profile

The five wall-drawings by Sol LeWitt (Hartford, 1928-New York, 2007), entitled Scribbles, were specially made in this room for the Sol LeWitt exhibition. The artist and his artists in 2012, after which they joined the collection of the Madre museum as a long-term loan from the LeWitt Collection. Selected, designed by the artist in 2007 and never performed before, the five wall drawings belong to the last cycle to which LeWitt dedicated himself. They adopt the black pencil of the first wall-drawings of the seventies but, unlike then, not to make the drawing as two-dimensional as possible but, on the contrary, to detach it from the wall in the most illusionistic way through skeins of more or less dense signs and chiaroscuro. As established in the handbook of wall drawings drawn up by LeWitt in 1970, the design of the work is the prerogative of the artist while its realization is entrusted to the assistants who, while strictly following his instructions, inevitably make each drawing different from the other. For the exhibition in Naples, a specialized designer sent by the LeWitt Collection, assisted by young local assistants, was working on the walls of the museum to create the work in relation to the very architecture of the room that now houses them permanently.
