Initially trained as an abstract painter, Corse (b. 1945, Berkeley, CA) emerged in the mid-1960s as one of the few women associated with the West Coast Light and Space movement. She shared with her contemporaries a deep fascination with perception and with the possibility that light itself could serve as both a subject and material of art. Yet while others largely migrated away from painting into sculptural and environmental projects, Corse approached the question of light through painting. This focused exhibition highlights critical moments of experimentation as Corse engaged with tropes of modernist painting, from the monochrome to the grid, while charting her own course through studies in quantum physics and complex investigations into a range of "painting" materials, from fluorescent light and Plexiglas to metallic flakes, glass microspheres, and clay. The survey will bring together for the first time Corse's key bodies of work-including her early shaped canvases, freestanding sculptures, and light encasements that she engineered in the mid-1960s, in her early twenties, as well as her breakthrough White Light Paintings, begun in 1968, and the Black Earth Series that she initiated after moving in 1970 from downtown Los Angeles to Topanga Canyon, where she lives and works today. 600 10 $a Corse, Mary, $d 1945- $v Exhibitions. 600 17 $a Corse, Mary, $d 1945- $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01956849 600 17 $a Corse, Mary $d 1945- $2 gnd 650 0 $a Light in art $v Exhibitions. 650 7 $a Light in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00998552 650 7 $a Lichtkunst $2 gnd 650 7 $a Malerei $2 gnd 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01424028 700 1 $a Clark, Robin $q (Robin Lee), $e contributor. 700 1 $a Govan, Michael, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Lowry, Alexis, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Reed, David, $d 1946- $e contributor. 700 12 $a Corse, Mary, $d 1945-. $t Works. $k Selections. 710 2 $a Whitney Museum of American Art, $e host institution. $e host institution. 710 2 $a Los Angeles County Museum of Art, $e host institution. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214020345.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180802014359.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=924D3CF4961911E8A89F3E0097128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
