With sensing fields, max goelitz inaugurates an exhibition project that opens with a solo presentation by James Turrell during Gallery Weekend Berlin 2026 and unfolds over several months.
The presentation of James Turrell (*1943, Los Angeles, US) is realized in close partnership with Häusler Contemporary Zurich as a guest gallery, which has represented the artist for decades. Since the 1960s, Turrell’s work has fundamentally redefined the relationship between light, space, and perception. At the core of his practice is the direct experience of light itself—not as a means of illumination, but as a material and spatial phenomenon that structures space and consciousness. The works unfold over time, heightening sensory awareness and resisting immediate visual comprehension in favor of a durational experience.
