This group of impressionists created a distinctive art form that combined American and European traditions. The California Impressionists worked&nbsp;<em>en plein air<\/em>, painting on easels outside while looking at the natural landscape. Working outside allowed these artists to focus on the vast expanse of the natural landscape, observing the way the sunlight affected the color and form of the surrounding area. The impressionists&#8217; work was momentary and captured the California landscape under specific conditions at a singular point in time. The California Impressionists&#8217; focus on the intersection of time, light, and color later caught the eye of minimalist artists in the 1960\u2019s.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2538\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2538\" style=\"width: 434px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/ma-77409.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2538\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/ma-77409.jpg\" alt=\"Granville Redmond, California Poppy Field, 1926.\" width=\"434\" height=\"291\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/ma-77409.jpg 2100w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/ma-77409-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/ma-77409-1024x688.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/ma-77409-768x516.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/ma-77409-1536x1031.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/ma-77409-2048x1375.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 434px) 100vw, 434px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2538\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>Granville Redmond,<br \/><em>California Poppy Field<\/em><br \/>, 1926.

The goal of minimalist artists was to change the previously imposed rule that art needs to contain aesthetic beauty and meaning. Minimalists valued simplicity and they created art that simplified shape into its basic form. The addition of light to the minimalist methodology allowed for their artwork to live within the present moment.<\/p>\n<p>When minimalist artists adopted the use of light and color from California Impressionists, a new art form was founded. &nbsp;The Light and Space movement incorporates both two- and three-dimensional space in combination with natural and artificial light sources. The movement combines the timelessness&nbsp;of minimalism with the momentary nature of impressionism. Art in the light and space genre eternally exists in the present moment, accomplishing this through the presence of light in combination with the permanence of either space or the painted canvas.<\/p>\n<p>Artists such as Mary Corse rely upon extreme two-dimensionality and a limited color palette to let natural light and the environment be present in their work. Instead of adding color to her pieces, such as&nbsp;<em>Untitled&nbsp;<\/em>(pictured below), Corse works in all white and adds glass micro-beads to the surface of her canvas. The micro-beads allow light to reflect off of the surface of the canvas and produce an array of colors and forms. For Corse the white canvas and the glass micro-beads are permanent and minimal. The way the light, both natural and artificial, shines off of the beads is momentary, capturing the time of day, weather, and encompassing environment.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2537\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2537\" style=\"width: 430px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/2002.4.1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2537\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/collections\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/73\/2017\/03\/2002.4.1-e1489011900246.jpg\" alt=\"Mary Corse, Untitled, 1986.\" width=\"430\" height=\"318\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2537\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>Mary Corse,<br \/><em>Untitled<\/em><br \/>, 1986.Oil on canvas with glass micro-beads, 78&#8243; X 102&#8243;.
