Standard Gauge: Film Works by Morgan Fisher, 1968–2003

Nov 29, 2005–Feb 11, 2006

A graphic artwork depicting a stylized representation of light dispersion. A white circle, suggestive of a light source, emits a spectrum of colors—red, orange, yellow, green, and blue—resembling a rainbow that intersects with a series of gray blocks arranged in a row on a dark background, creating a three-dimensional effect.
