Did you know that Barnett Newman wanted us to look at his large scale paintings from a short distance? When "Vir Heroicus Sublimis" was first exhibited in New York in 1951, Newman added a notice on the wall stating "There is a tendency to look at large pictures from a distance. The large pictures in this exhibition are intended to be seen from a short distance." The title of this work is in Latin. It means "Man, heroic and sublime". It is on view at the MoMA.
