2008 | Best Spot for a Mental Escape

A color-changing, open-ceilinged oblong room, a light buzz of traffic from 15th Avenue, instruction from the Seattle Insight Meditation society--it all makes James Turrell's Skyspace at the Henry the perfect spot to find inner serenity. This gorgeously minimalist space, with wooden benches and walls that lean out from the floor, isn't exactly peaceful--you hear whooshing, grumbling buses and the metallic plink of the crosswalk signal. The air, however, is very good, and the shape... More »

The Henry's Two Big Fall Shows

By Brian Miller | Wed, November 16, 2011

Videowatercolors: Carel Balth Among His Contemporaries

By | Wed, October 26, 2011

Color residues, image remnants, and blurring boundaries figure in this mouthful of a show, which includes no actual watercolors. Videos, yes. Also some photos and photos of photos. And also some collages and rearrangements of photos where the text... More »
Carolee Schneemann: Within and Beyond the Premises

By | Wed, October 26, 2011

The most visceral and startling Seattle museum show this fall occupies the big basement gallery at the the Henry. It's not exactly a cave, but this 40-year survey of Carolee Schneemann's work has the raw, sensual intensity of cave art. Born in 193... More »

A color-changing, open-ceilinged oblong room, a light buzz of traffic from 15th Avenue, instruction from the Seattle Insight Meditation society�it all makes James Turrell's Skyspace at the Henry the perfect spot to find inner serenity. This gorgeously minimalist space, with wooden benches and walls that lean out from the floor, isn't exactly peaceful�you hear whooshing, grumbling buses and the metallic plink of the crosswalk signal. The air, however, is very good, and the shape of the room itself seems to inspire calm. If you open your eyes, the sky will seem to float, contained in the oval above. (The next session is 10 a.m. Sat., Sept. 13. Reservations required, 616-9894. Admission by donation.)�Adriana Grant
