dc.descriptionOverall view, side, showing depth; Situated on the Getty Research Institute plaza. In this sculpture, painting's basic building block, the brushstroke, has been playfully transformed into an oversized, three-dimensional form. Made from aluminum, three vertical "strokes" of pure color are frozen in space and rise to a height of more than ten feet. One edge of the yellow brushstroke cuts through the dominant stroke of black and blue; the yellow also curves into a diminutive stroke of red paint. The sculpture humorously reminds us that paint is literally three-dimensional. Source: The Getty [website]; http://www.getty.edu/ (accessed 7/10/2010)en_US
