Sol LeWitt had many influences from his job at the Modern Museum of Art, where he saw works by Jasper Johns, Frank Stella and Robert Rauschenberg. These artists are his influences because LeWitt was exposed to him during his initial job in the city. A specific work would be Stella’s “Die Fahne Hoch!” (1959), which started the minimalism movement. This is similar to some of LeWitt’s two-dimensional work where he claims that the geometry paints the painting itself. Another example would be Jasper John’s very famous “Flag” (1954), where it challenged the idea that if this is a painting of a flag, or if it is a flag. This is similar to the ideas of Sol LeWitt because he generated the definition of conceptual art, and with “Flag” this emphasized on the idea of the artwork. During LeWitt’s job at the Modern Museum of Art he met fellow artists like Dan Flavin, Robert Mangold and Robert Ryman. A very similar piece to LeWitt’s ideals is Flavin’s “Pink Out of a Corner (To Jasper Johns)” (1963), where both artists use the viewer’s space and they both did not emphasize on authorship as someone else would install their pieces in the museum.
