Earl Reiback

The NYPR Archive Collections | Jan 1, 2000

Patricia Marx interviews nuclear physicist and artist Earl M. Reiback on the development of his light sculptures and theory of "luminal art". Considering himself both a sculptor and choreographer of light, Reiback describes his techniques and impulses for creating these light installations. Often incorporating psychedelic colors and sound, Reiback hopes to evoke a mystical sense of awe and wonder through his work. This interview precedes his one man show at the Howard Wise Gallery in October of 1968.
