Summary:
This is a volume on Light Art, the current in contemporary art that uses artificial light as its primary expressive instrument. In the first section an extensive introductory essay by Amnon Barzel underlines how practically interrupted study into the chromatic values of light have been part of the history of art from its very beginnings right through to the most recent developments, recalling the experiences of Caravaggio and de La Tour regarding internal light and the expressionists for external light, thus underlining how the invention of artificial light has enriched the light-art relationship opening a fascinating new chapter, inaugurated by the experiments carried out from the fifties by artists such as Fontana, Flavin, Merz and others. A text by Paolo Targetti follows dealing with the fundamental role played by the relationship between art and industry in contemporary art. Consuelo de Gara conducts an extended interview of James Turrell, the US artist unanimously considered the greatest master of Light Art. The second section is devoted to the Targetti Light Art Collection, one of the most prestigious collections in the world dealing with artificial light. The images and description of each of the works which make up the collection are accompanied by a retrospective critical text on the artists who created them. Among the artists presented are some of considerable fame including Olafur Eliasson, Gilberto Zorio, Anne and Patrick Poirier, Fabrizio Plessi and Hidetoshi Nagasawa as well as young up-and-coming talents, winners of the first four editions of the International Targetti Light Art Prize.

Summary:
In galleries and museums, one’s perception of art, space, and atmosphere is largely determined by lighting. But which light settings should art and museum experts and exhibition designers choose, and on what basis are those choices made? Pioneering LED technologies make customized lighting scenarios possible, turning artificial light into an interactive material in museum architecture – not only in terms of design practice, but also in terms of real-time spatial experiences. Computer-controlled lighting technologies are breaking boundaries, allowing the individual to take full control of lighting design. ''Light Up'' explores the potential of dynamic artificial lighting technologies in museum architecture, offering new insights into the use of light in exhibition spaces.
