Acquired as a single monumental work in 1979 for Dia's permanent collection, this environmental series of 102 paintings is a culmination of Andy Warhol's interest in shadows that engaged him throughout the 1970s. Hung edge-to-edge in conformity with Warhol's original installation, the canvases span nearly 450 linear feet around the Hirshhorn's signature curved gallery walls.
