For his 2013 Artpace exhibition, Adam Putnam created an exhibition about shadow and light. The exhibition included a series of black-and-white photographs to act as storyboards, documenting what was happening in the space. Putnam told Artpace, "I like the idea that a stage set does not have to be 100 percent realistic; it just has to read and be understood from a distance. The repetition of the arch can be seen in the light projection piece and in the photographs—where my form becomes the arch—and in the physical arches of the structures." The etchings shown here are derived from preparatory sketches that the artist used to make the actual brick structures and drawings. "They have become plates that can be moved around in the same way I have been moving these structures. The video is yet another explanation of all these elements coming together," said Putnam.
