Four Incomplete Red Neon Circles on a Pink Wall 1977

Stephen Antonakos's "Four Incomplete Red Neon Circles on a Pink Wall" (1977) exemplifies his minimalist approach to sculpture. The work consists of four red neon circles, each incomplete, mounted on a pink wall. The vibrant color and simple form create a visually engaging composition, drawing the viewer's attention to the interplay of light and shape. Antonakos's use of neon, a material often associated with commercial signage, challenged traditional notions of sculpture and brought a new dimension to the medium. His work often explored the relationship between light, space, and color, as seen in this piece.
