This retrospective of the Greek-American artist Stephen Antonakos features 250 works that cover this abstract formalist's creative life from 1954 to the present. The show aims to document the role Antonakos played in the evolution of light art internationally starting in the 60s and who continues to find new inspiration in neon after 45 years. It spans all phases of the artist's evolution, featuring many of the major neon works, over 85 drawings, models for his Chapels and Meditation Rooms, and some works exhibited here for the first time.
