look and see , 2005

This enormous white sculpture captures the negative space around two arms of a staircase, which extend in a V from a square base. A flight of seven stairs extends to the right, terminating in a rectangular block of a landing that wraps around the flight of fifteen stairs that extends to the left. — Rachel Whiteread

Untitled (Domestic) , 2002

This photograph captures two walls, which meet in a corner toward the left edge, covered in a black graphite. The walls are divided into large rectangular planes, each of which is darkest at its edges and gradually becomes lighter toward the center, creating the illusion of a curving surface catching the light. A vast number of hand-drawn scribbles make up these forms. The two walls surround a staircase; a small portion of the second-story landing is visible on the right edge. — Sol LeWitt

Wall Drawing # 1268: Scribbles: Staircase (AKAG) , conceived 2006 (executed 2010)

The image shows a projector sitting on a short box in the center of the floor, two boxy televisions on rolling carts against one wall, and a chair placed in front of the video projected on an adjacent wall. The video shows a cowboy riding a horse in an arid landscape of hills and scrubland. The television screens display the same video; the screen on the left is in sync with the projection while the screen on the right shows a different point in the film. — Bruce Nauman

Green Horses , 1988

Synecdoche — Byron Kim

Synecdoche , 2008

Thin, angular red lines and small black shapes coalesce to form the small abstract figures that fill this gray, square-shaped canvas. The figures are arranged in a loose circle and partially fill in the top half of this circle. Their spiky, bright-colored outlines convey a feeling of movement, joy, and celebration. — Norman Wilfred Lewis

Street Music , 1950

The phrase “49 MILES” in yellow block letters, tilted slightly as if set in italics, fills the polished aluminum surface of this sculpture facing the viewer. Additional stripes of yellow extend from where these numbers and letters touch the left and top edges of the sculpture’s front surface across its left and top surfaces. Overall, the sculpture takes the form of a rectangular cube whose depth and width are equal to one another and considerably smaller than its length. It is shown installed on the floor. — Roni Horn

Limit of the Twilight , 1991

Flood — Barnaby Furnas

Flood , 2007

Karma — Do Ho Suh

Karma , 2010

More than sixty aluminum canoes and rowboats connected to one another by a network of steel cables expand outward at varying angles from a steel supporting column, cantilevering dramatically to the right. This sculpture is shown installed in front of a large tree outside the museum’s entrance. — Nancy Rubins

Monochrome I, Built to Live Anywhere, at Home Here , 2010-2011

The Holstein Manifesto — Matthew Ritchie

The Holstein Manifesto , 2008

The phrase “Only God Knows I’m Good” in cursive English script is fabricated in snow white neon, which is mounted on a wall. — Tracey Emin

Only God Knows I'm Good , 2009 (produced 2011)

This large, horizontally oriented abstract painting is visually divided into two square portions. On the left, alternating red and purple stripes of the same width span the height of the canvas. On the right, stripes of the same color and size run horizontally from the right edge to the painting’s overall center. The lines formed by the stripes are very straight and even. — Olivier Mosset

Untitled , 1986

Other Faces — William Kentridge

Other Faces , 2011

Secrets and Lies — Gillian Wearing

Secrets and Lies , 2009

This abstract sculpture appears overall like an oversized piece of paper with a V-shaped divot cut out of the right side and curling edges. It balances on the floor near its center. The underside of the plastic form is white, but bright patches of spray-painted yellow, blue, green, purple, orange, black, gray, and pink cover the top, overlapping and dripping onto one another. — Katharina Grosse

Untitled (intern "Shape 7") (KG/O 2010_8031L) , 2010

"Niagara" #79 X 6' Two Fold — Robert Irwin

NIAGARA , 2012

Laura — Jaume Plensa

Laura , 2012

One of five images. This vertically oriented photograph shows a landscape with patches of lush green grass separated by a graveled walking path stretching into the distance and toward a cluster of trees. A slightly darker brown wave pattern zigs and zags across the width of the pathway, running along its full length. — Andy Goldsworthy

Path , 2012-2013

Dream Displacement — Paul Sharits

Dream Displacement , 1976

A large, white, horizontally oriented rectangle, edged by a thick, black outline, sits in the center of a sheet of dusty rose colored paper. The top and bottom edges of the paper are jagged, suggesting it was torn from a roll. — Tony Conrad

Yellow Movie 2/23-24/73 , 1973

Kilroy — Paul Terence Feeley

Kilroy , 1957

While this massive, horizontally oriented painting is entirely abstract, the overall effect loosely resembles a stormy sky captured in a blurry photograph. The pale yellow background is covered with diffuse patches and horizontal streaks of black spray paint, which is more heavily weighted in the bottom half of the canvas. A small reddish-pink form appears at the bottom-right corner. Two faint vertical scratches indistinctly divide the canvas into thirds. — Sterling Ruby

SP273 , 2014

This large-scale wall-mounted sculpture features forty-one sections of fire hose of equal size laid vertically side-by-side. From left to right, the sections of fire hose progressively appear more worn. The dominant color of the fabric gradually transitions from yellow to tones of gray. Some sections of the fire hose are stamped with black letters spelling out the original manufacturer specifications. — Theaster Gates

Civil Tapestry 5 , 2012

First of two images. Still from a video of the artist naked on the banks of a river, which is just visible in the upper-right corner of the image. She kneels on the leaf-covered ground, staring at the silhouette of a female figure dug into the earth in shallow relief. — Ana Mendieta

Corazón de Roca con Sangre (Heart of Rock with Blood) , 1975
