Large Field Array is named after the Very Large Array, a field of radio telescopes in New Mexico. Very Large Array focuses on one spot from multiple viewpoints to give us a clearer picture of the universe. Similarly, Tyson’s monumental work combines almost 300 separate sculptural forms into a single Field Array which Tyson claims operates as a gigantic experiential lens for viewing some of the invisible and fundamental forces that make up our reality. This vast installation has never been seen in its entirety, and was first shown in 2006 at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, travelling to the De Pont Museum of Contemporary Art, Tilburg, the Netherlands and PaceWildenstein, New York in 2007.

This specially commissioned publication has been produced to document and interpret this truly epic work, as well as celebrate the first complete installation of Large Field Array which has been exhibited three times previously but in each iteration was incomplete. For the first time this work has been painstakingly documented and each element photographed. This work is the magnum opus of Tyson’s vital and intriguing practice and to mark this occasion Zabludowicz collection invited a new generation of critics and art writers to respond to the installation. Aindrea Emelife, Isobel Harbison, Timotheus Vermeulen, Nicola Oxley & Nicolas de Oliveira, and Ana Teixeira Pinto were each commissioned to write a short reaction to the work and its themes. Creating a small compendium of subjective interpretations these texts, alongside an interview between Tyson and Tim Marlow highlight the highly unique approach to art practice forged by Tyson over the past 25 years.
