Window Piece 1961

"Window Piece" is a minimalist sculpture by Phillip King, created in 1961. It is a white, rectangular form with a recessed square opening, reminiscent of a window. The surface of the piece is textured, giving the work a sense of depth and tactility. King's minimalist sculptures explore the relationship between form, space, and light. The absence of colour and detail draw the viewer's attention to the geometric simplicity of the work. This piece exemplifies King's exploration of the formal qualities of sculpture, which has placed him among the important British sculptors of the 20th century.
