Carla Klein / Barnett Newman

 

 

Barnett Newman

The Stations of the Cross: Lema Sabachthani

1958-1966

series of fifteen paintings

magna, oil and acrylic on canvas

National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.

 

 

 

I saw this series by Barnett Newman in 2000 at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, and I was completely blown away. At that time, it was still on display in a dimly lit room. I was there all by myself, I had travelled to Washington alone, and that meant there was nothing standing between me and this series. Seeing the image again now takes me right back to that moment.
