The nuts thing about the big space is that whilst looking forwards into infinity is awesome, turning around and gazing back into the white waiting room gives a vivid complimentary colour the likes of which I've only ever read about in colour theory books! Science in action. Beautiful. Sometimes an artist spends their waking life honing something and making it work so well that the usual critical responses are rendered redundant. Cracking show! Can't agree that it's Viola honed back to basics though. Usually I find BV to be overtly narrative and gimmicky. He's really cheesy and emotive at the best of times but pretty MTV in the context of Turrell...
