James Turrell creates the beam of light that projected to the crossing walls, becomes an object which he called "thingness of light" - an 3D object relatively connected to the surrounding space.

A must-see part of this exhibition is Sight Unseen y James Turrell an exclusive part that brought us to Ganzfled stage. Like an effect of snow storm that we could not define the edge and even recognise what to be seen. The sophisticate light in borderless white room creates a disorienting experience which gives as the possibility to "perceive our own perception"

Another hi-light project from Robert Irwin is Varese Scrim - the artistic pure space created by natural light and long nylon scrim. Shape the labyrinth in the geometrically rhythmic way. Leads to the new feel of space awareness and surrounding environment.

Besides, there are rooms that blended the external environment to the internal space by technique portal cut with neon light and white painting. Created the beautiful frames of sky, sunlight, and environment of outside park. Perfectly mix up natural and artificial light in the space through time.
