The father of conceptual art, Sol LeWitt has dedicated his life to the search for form in space. Before devoting himself entirely to his art, LeWitt worked as a graphic designer for the architect IM Pei between 1955-1956, which later inspired the architectural reference in his work. In the mid-1960s, LeWitt created his first wall drawings, a dialogue between plastic art and architectural space, an approach that would remain at the heart of his artistic project.
