Last week, an installation team at the Art Gallery of NSW (AGNSW) started on the recreation of Wall drawing #955: loopy doopy (red and purple), an ephemeral artwork by the late American conceptual artist Sol LeWitt.
It will be painted on the same wall where LeWitt’s pencil work, All two part combinations of arcs from four corners, arcs from four sides, straight, not-straight and broken lines in four directions (for want of a shorter title) was made for Kaldor Public Arts Project 06 in 1977.
