Light painting, neon, a sense of contrast, shadows, mirrors,... Light is an endless source of inspiration for artists. It is what makes everything visible, what enables us to perceive shapes and spaces, and is the determining element in all artistic practice. The interplay of light is essential to art. Claude Monet, for example, often awoke extremely early in the morning to take advantage of the magical light of dawn. And now, light painting has now entered the art world.
Discover our selection of compositions that draw all their visual power from the way light is captured, or created, by artists. Explore the photographic woks of Feng Hatat, the rich op art abstractions of Sergio Recabarren or the luminous messages of Mary-Jo McGonagle!
