Özet:The aim of this text is to study the temporal and musical dimensions of Sean Scully’s work, after making a bio-bibliographical revision – since the 60’s to his latest pieces at the beginning of the 21st century. Secondly, I seek to exemplify the interdisciplinary link with music in the corpus of the Irish painter, as a visible example of this temporal fact. I therefore suggest the study of Scully’s texts –which stand as a main source to analyze his æsthetic thought– and those of the critics. The article continues with the analysis of the cycle Wall of light and of certain musical examples inspired by it, written by the Spanish composer Mauricio Sotelo. Thus, I shall demonstrate the relevance of temporal and musical dimensions to appreciate Scully’s entire work.
