i took some of my students to tate modern tonight and after the slight irritation that many pieces are re-hung and the main part of level 5 is closed for that very reason i sneaked into the roni horn show and spent the better part of an hour with the one piece that i liked and of which i have snatched a photo.
the solid poured glass of "opposite of white" is sheer beauty and rarely have i wished so intensely for the security guard to go away that i can touch a piece. in a fantastic juxtaposition of opaque and transparent the roughly a meter wide cylinder has the translucense of ultra clean water and whereas the axis draws you inside the polished surface rejects you.
lovely piece. want.
