"An orchestrator of experience"_James Turrell

"I am interested in this new landscape without horizon. If you go into the Ganzfeld pieces it is a little bit like the landscape that you can find when flying around through cloud or fog. You can also find it in 'whiteout conditions' when you go skiing and get into snowfall, it can happen that you are not really sure anymore which way is up or down. This occurs in diving, too. We are moving into the territory of horizonless space that you can also experience in outer space without gravity."

Chuck Close once described his fellow artist James Turrell as "an orchestrator of experience, not a creator of cheap effects. And every artist knows how cheap an effect is, and how revolutionary an experience.”
