90 white walls 1970

Dale Hickey's 1970 artwork, "90 White Walls," consists of a box containing 90 individual cards, each depicting a shade of white. The cards are arranged in a gradient, creating a visual spectrum of white. Hickey's work explores the nuances and variations within seemingly simple concepts like color, challenging viewers to reconsider their perceptions of the world. This minimalist piece reflects Hickey's interest in conceptual art and its exploration of ideas and processes over traditional artistic techniques.
