About The Blog

The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts and Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis have joined together to create the Contemporary-Pulitzer blog which, for the first time, combines the perspectives of two separate institutions with differing missions within the same blog.


Offering alternating posts each day from the Pulitzer and Contemporary, the blog provides a candid look at the behind-the-scenes workings of both arts organizations.

Mixing Ice Cream & the St. Louis Sunset

Spencer Finch arrived yesterday and started mixing colors for the ice cream.  As Maria from the Contemporary mentioned in her post, his work is their contribution to the Light Project.  A soft-serve ice cream machine, powered by solar panels on the roof of the Contemporary, will produce ice cream the color of the St. Louis sunset.  It’ll be given out for free, and – take my word for it – it’s delicious.   Spencer was here a few weeks ago, making watercolor paintings of the sunset.  He’s using these watercolors as the basis for the ice cream colors.  Each bag of ice cream will be one of the colors – creating, as it’s referenced in his interview, an “edible monochrome”.

Here’s one of the watercolors:

And here he is mixing yesterday, matching the color yellow:
