Sanctuary 1942
Zinc plate lithograph
The Josef and Anni Albers Foundation
I found this artwork very interesting because at first glance, it take one square and then it surrounds it with many squares. When you ontinue to look at the artwork it does begin to look slike three doors down a couple of hallways. I alway found this interesting because it reminded me of that willy wonka clip where they enter the hallway into the very small door. The door, at first, only takes the apperence of a small door but its typical at the end of a hallway; however, when you get closer the door becomes much bigger. This is the exact opposite of that because you never get closer to the door no matter how much you move in. It alo looks very similar to topography which is how we would measure the hieght and depth of many landscapes now. This piece of artwork really intrigues the view and makes the viewer take that second glance.
