		Among Flavin's most important late large-scale installation was his project to light the entire rotunda of the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City to commemorate its restoration and reopening in 1992 (based on a smaller installation he had made there for the 1971 "Sixth Guggenheim International").

		Flavin rigorously scrutinized not only the language describing his art, but also his gallery presentations, which are some of the earliest examples of installation art.
		Flavin’s art departs from the traditional fields of painting and sculpture in issues of conservation as well.
		Flavin reinforced the impermanence of his work by having some of the certificates printed on cheap pulp paper, thereby ensuring their eventual disintegration, analogous to the bulbs’ eventual burning out.

	Richmond Hall: Dan Flavin Installation
		Flavin’s first foray into the use of fluorescent light, the diagonal of May 25, 1963 (to Robert Rosenblum) (1963), introduced his mature period in which he explored a new sense of space that, in his words, "could be disrupted and played with by careful, thorough compositions of light."
		By selecting light as his medium, Flavin connects the viewer to one of the most elemental components of existence.
		Using standard electrical fluorescent tubes, in various combinations of size and color, he investigates the dichotomy between the concrete, revealing the actual tubes and fixtures, and the ethereal, capturing the indefinable dimension of light in space.

		Flavin argued that summary judgment was appropriate as to count II because the November 22 letter containing the allegedly libelous statement was absolutely privileged as a communication pertinent to a legal proceeding.
		Flavin also testified that the parties' attorneys negotiated an agreement to permit Medow to return to the office in late September or early October 1988 to remove those of her belongings hanging on the walls.
		Flavin argues that the allegedly defamatory statement that Medow was terminated "for theft" is absolutely privileged because the November 22 letter as a whole is clearly pertinent to the Creative Travel/Della Femina litigation.

	Dan Flavin - An Essay (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		One of Flavin’s last installations, untitled (1996) in the two four-story staircases of Dia’s exhibition building, exemplifies the aesthetic principles consistent throughout his work; a simple line of two-foot lights of two colors (blue and green), placed vertically in a corner, fills the space with luminous color.
		Flavin continued to dedicate most of his work to friends, acquaintances, and others throughout his career with equal doses of respect and irony, but rarely with the sentiment intimated in these early pieces.
		Flavin also describes the diagonal position of the eight-foot tube as arbitrary, although it is difficult not to imagine its connection to the diagonal dynamic of compositions of Russian avant-garde artists such as Kasimir Malevich, Vladimir Tatlin, and El Lissitzky, whose work was constantly of interest to him.

		Indeed, in many cases Flavin thinks like a draftsman -- its just that his lines are not marks, but three-dimensional shapes in space that radiate light and color; they exist only so long as his characteristic fluorescent lamps function and receive electric power.
		In 1963, Flavin fled the frame and mounted colored fluorescent fixtures directly on the wall as in the diagonal of May 25, 1963 (to Constantin Brancusi).
		Flavin got a dramatically different effect in untitled (in honor of Harold Joachim) 3 (1977), a grid of 8-ft. colored bulbs mounted in a corner with some facing the viewer and some facing away.

	The New York Times > Arts > Art & Design > Art Review \| Dan Flavin: To Be Enlightened, You Pull the Switch
		Flavin was one of the movement's founding figures, an artist who had a good idea.
		Flavin's point wasn't exactly to deny the religious allusions and optic uplift of his sculptures but to stress the here and now of the work.
		In this respect, Flavin was an American type: enamored of the everyday, fond of gadgets, congenitally skeptical, proudly self-taught, hell-bent on reinventing the world, caustic on the outside, romantic at heart, a fierce protector of his turf.

	Haunch of Venison: Dan Flavin - Works from the 1960s (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Flavin’s important place in the history of twentieth-century art is increasingly recognised internationally and the Haunch of Venison exhibition coincides with the first full retrospective of Flavin’s work that is concurrently touring America.
		Flavin first came to public attention in the mid 1960s as one of a group of American artists who were referred to as ‘Minimalists’ including Carl Andre, Donald Judd and Sol LeWitt.
		From 1963 Flavin’s work consists almost entirely of a reductive formal vocabulary of light installations made from arrangements of readymade fluorescent tubes in ten colours (blue, green, pink, red, yellow, ultraviolet and four whites) and five shapes (one circular and four straight fixtures of eight, six, four and two-foot lengths).

		One of Flavin's signature "barrier" works, untitled (to you, Heiner, with admiration and affection), 1973, a 120 foot—long installation in green fluorescent light, will be on view in the central pavilion gallery on the ground floor, where the light from the installation will be reflected in the Modern's pond.

Guggenheim Museum in New York City to commemorate its restoration and reopening in 1992 (based on a smaller installation he had made there for the Sixth Guggenheim International Exhibition in 1971).

	ZWIRNER & WIRTH \| Dan Flavin
		In the spring of 1963, Flavin freed the electric fixtures from their sculptural support for the first time, mounting a single, gold fluorescent tube at a 45-degree angle directly onto the wall.
		Flavin wrote that his monuments "memorialize Vladimir Tatlin, the great revolutionary, who dreamed of art as science…" The corner piece Untitled (to Frank Stella), 1966, also hints at the Russian fascination with corner relief constructions as seen in both the work of Malevich and Tatlin circa 1915.
		Flavin’s belief in the constructivist motto "real materials in real space" is demonstrated throughout his career.

	CNN.com - Review: Flavin's strip light fantastic - Mar 27, 2006
		Flavin, who died in 1996, worked with ordinary fluorescent tubes to create electrified sculptures that, while simplistic in appearance, shed light on a rather satisfying art experience.
		This rather risible simplicity is highlighted by Flavin's apparent breakthrough work, "The Diagonal of May 25, 1963 (to Constantin Brancusi)," an eight-foot long yellow fluorescent tube placed at a 45-degree angle to the gallery floor.
		Flavin uses color and geometry to explore space -- the blank corners and corridors that often stand unnoticed.

	Flavin's Enlightening Installations (washingtonpost.com)
		Flavin's art isn't just pretty, but it is that -- and gets prettier as the chronological show progresses, especially the farther away one gets from his goofy, almost clownishly inept early attempts to incorporate light into his art.
		Then again, there is the element of sculpture in Flavin's art, which treated the fluorescent tube, and its long metal box, not just as a necessary evil -- as a kind of unavoidable armature of sorts for the main act -- but as a virtue in and of itself.
		This is most apparent in Flavin's barrier pieces, such as "untitled (to Jan and Ron Greenberg)," and "untitled (in honor of Harold Joachim)," which both draw your attention toward and prevent physical access to the parts of the room they illuminate.

	Boston.com / Sports / College / Men's basketball / After a late start, Flavin finds he has a talent for basketball
		Flavin, 22, never played organized basketball until the ninth grade -- a late start in the game, considering that most collegians played their first organized game in grade school, and advanced to travel squads and eventually Amateur Athletic Union teams to hone their skills.
		Gregg provided Flavin his entry into organized basketball, as the youngster's first coach on the Weymouth High freshman team, and remembers Flavin as a raw and inexperienced ninth-grader.
		Flavin has only good memories of Gregg, a star at Weymouth High in the 1960s who led the team to the state championship.

	RTE Business - Flavin told to give 'fuller answer'
		Mr Flavin had been asked to confirm whether a transcript of a phone conversation which allegedly took place on February 3 2000 between Mr Flavin and Ronan Godfrey, head of the equity desk at Davy Stockbrokers, is accurate.
		He said that, due to the absence of context, the passage of time and since he had not heard the recording itself, he was unable to swear on oath that it was a true or substantially true record of the conversation.
		This was of considerable importance not just because of Mr Flavin's denial that he dealt in the shares but also because all four defendants had contended the person who dealt in the shares was Lotus Green, which was alleged to be the beneficial owner of the shares.

		Two other more interesting links, which mattered to Flavin himself and which in fact show up in the titles of some of his installations, are with Russian icons on one hand, and with the work of Soviet Constructivist artists such as Vladimir Tatlin (himself once an icon restorer) on the other.
		From the icon-making tradition Flavin derived something about the undesirability of ego in the production of his works, and perhaps also (with a nod to his own truncated theological studies) a consciousness of the permeability of the physical world by the genuinely numinous.
		The upstairs room showing Flavin's sketches, on the other hand, simply reminds us all how right he was to stick with the genre in which he ultimately made his reputation.

	greg.org: Re-inventing the Lightbulb, 2/2: Stephen Flavin
		Stephen Flavin is the only child of Dan Flavin and his first wife, Sonja Severdija.
		His first efforts--producing the artist's all-important certificates by computer (previously, they had been variously handwritten or typed) and converting the elaborate and disparate index-card-based inventory of works, which was split among several galleries, to an electronic database--have helped in efforts since his father's death in 1996 to create a catalogue raisonne of the artist's work.
		Perhaps the most important decision made for the estate was to close Flavin's editions and not posthumously produce over 1,700 that the artist had declared, but which remained unsold at his death.

	Flavin's Quilting Heritage
		In 1973, with Christmas coming, Flavin returned to the farm to find Nonnie very much needing to get the quilt frame out of the dining room before the family arrived.
		Waldrep had taught her, Flavin eventually showed her quilts at the Southern Quilt Symposium in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
		The joys of teaching in Flavin’s view are in sharing ideas, helping students expand their knowledge, and in motivating others to create quilts from within themselves.

	FPC - Flavin Installation at the Chinati Foundation
		The project consists of six army barracks buildings on the former Fort Russell site that were conceived as an art project by the noted minimalist artist, Dan Flavin.
		Flavin used standard fluorescent light fixtures in a range of color lamps to create a variety of light "paintings" that work in a series.
		Interior walls were separated from the structure to allow for movement and to create a pristine shell for the reflected light.
