Practicioner's Delight 1966

"Practicioner's Delight" (1966) by Gary Kuehn is a minimalist sculpture that uses simple forms and colors to create a visually engaging and thought-provoking piece. The work features a white rectangular form, seemingly split by a pink, organic, liquid-like material, suggesting a sense of both solidity and fluidity. The sculpture's clean lines and smooth surfaces emphasize the materiality and tactility of the work, inviting viewers to consider the interplay between form and content. Kuehn's use of a simple color palette, with the stark white contrasting the soft pink, further enhances the interplay of light and shadow, adding a sense of depth to the work. This piece is a prime example of Kuehn’s exploration of Minimalism and its relation to everyday objects.
