Warp Drive 1990

"Warp Drive" (1990) is a minimalist sculpture by John McCracken, known for his sleek, geometric forms. The sculpture, painted a vibrant red, resembles a plank of wood, showcasing McCracken's fascination with industrial materials and simple forms. This work is a prime example of McCracken's distinctive style, which blends Modernist principles with a playful sense of scale and color. The artist often explored themes of space and the infinite, which are implied in the title and the elongated, seemingly suspended form of the sculpture.
