{"title":"Dan Flavin","description":"\u003cp\u003eDan Flavin (1933–1996) was an American artist whose practice centred on commercially available fluorescent light tubes arranged in specific configurations. From 1963, Flavin produced a body of work that used industrial light as both material and medium, transforming architectural space through colour, duration, and the standardised forms of mass production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlavin's works were typically issued in numbered editions with certificates of authenticity, making the document an integral part of the work's identity and transferability. He was associated with minimalism and maintained close relationships with galleries and institutions in New York and Europe throughout his career. His work is held in major international collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePublications gathered here include exhibition catalogues and printed matter relating to Dan Flavin's practice.
