The light art project timeguards “Madonna and sisters” by Manfred Kielnhofer on tour in Venice

0 Comments 08 September 2011

“Guards of Time” relates to the idea that since the beginning of time mankind has had protectors, both for historic and mystical reasons. It seems that only man himself is a potential source of danger for his own existence. In his works of art Manfred Kielnhofer deals with the natural human desire for security. Thus his oeuvre reflects genuine exploration, consideration and discussion of current as well as historic moods and sensibilities of his social environment. His works of art captivate with elaborate combinations of light and different technique.
Manfred Kielnhofer was born in Haslach an der Mühl, Austria. He is self-taught and works with many different mediums; including, painting, film, photography, installation, performance and sculpture. His work usually concerns the human figure, and its different forms and movements, focusing mainly on the peculiarities of human nature. He uses the human form as a tool, either on a canvas or in a sculpture.

AO On Site – Art Fair News Summary and final photoset: Art 42 Basel
2011 in closing

Eccentric art was also at Basel, if not as dominant a presence as the
traditional buys. Ghost Car by Kielnhofer was a large white van with
hooded figures driving outside the fair, and the Bleifrei (which
translates to Lead Free in German) Art Collective told Art Info: “Art
is like Jesus; it died and it’s coming again.”

Biennale – “Tetraeder” von mARTina schettina

0 Comments 16 May 2010


Lichtobjekt: „Tetraeder“ von Martina Schettina.

6 Leuchstäbe Länge á 136 cm. Langenzersdorf, 2010

Der regelmäßige Tetraeder ist der erste der fünf platonischen Körper, genauer ein (dreidimensionales) Polyeder (ein Vielflächner) mit vier (kongruenten) gleichseitigen Dreiecken als Flächen, sechs (gleichlangen) Kanten und vier Ecken, in denen jeweils drei Flächen zusammentreffen. Die Darstellung des Tetraeders erfolgte durch 6 Leuchtstäbe als Lichtobjekt. Die Zahl 6 ist eine besondere Zahl: Sie ist die kleinste vollkommene Zahl: 6 = 1 + 2 + 3. 6 ist die Fakultät von 3: 6 = 3! = 1 * 2 * 3, was bemerkenswert ist, weil es keine andere Zahl gibt, bei der das Produkt dreier Zahlen gleich der Summe derselben Zahlen ist. Ebenso ist

Die Gleichung x3 + y3 + z3 = 6xyz hat als einzige Lösung x=1, y=2 und z=3. Auch ist

Schließlich ist 6 eine Dreieckszahl. D. h. legt man Spielsteine in einem Dreieck an, 1, 2, 3, 4, pro Reihe, dann ist 6 die dritte Dreieckszahl 1+2+3 = 6.

Light art Biennale

0 Comments 16 May 2010

The Biennale of light art Austria 2010 is an exhibition of contemporary art dealing with light which is first established in 2010.
General informations
The slogan of the „ Biennale für Lichtkunst Austria 2010“ is „private light in public spaces“ and takes place in Austria within the project “LALA”. LALA means Linz (Austria) and Langenzersdorf (Austria), whre the two initiators have their ateliers. Linz has been the cultural capital of Austria 2009, and the city is established in the cultural landscape by the Msueum Lentos, the Ars Electronca Center and the Brucknerhaus. Langenezersdorf , a township in neighbourhood of Vienna, has two museums for famous Austrian sculptors, the Hanak-Museum and the Charoux-Museum. At April 13 th 2010 the National Biennale of light art starts by presenting artwork in public spaces.
The artist from all over the world are invited to show their light projects in streets and squares and public buildings, trying to empathise with the place and the people who frequent these places or simply work there.
Already finished artwork is sown as well as artwork especially created for that Biennale. The keyword are light-art, public an private, which build the triangle of eagerness.
The organisation team of the „Nationale Biennale für Lichtkunst Austria 2010“ is lead by Martina Schettina from Langenzersdorf and Manfred Kielnhofer from Linz.
Exhibition spaces
The public exhibition spaces are selected by the artists themselves There is no border and no linitation, so every artist has the most possible liberty of action. The reaction of passangers will be different, because they are rapidly transmitted into captive audience. The public may come in the first contact with art at all, but it is also possible, that people who come by are firm with art.
Concept
This first National Biennale für Light Art in Austria has wants to generate a cut surface between society and art. The spontaneous conjunction with art in public spaces leans on the art concept of Joseph Beuys from 1965 “How to define the paintings to the dead reabbit” in Düsseldorf.
There should arise a dialogue between art and public.
Artists
Among the selected artist will be light artists as well as artists, who use light i art for their first time. The use of light will transform art in a higher level.
Sponsoring
The Biennale is powered by Sponsoring the Austrian country, the cities and townships, which provides the artists with public squares, streets and buildings free of charge. More sponsorers are welcome.
Opening Hours
The opening hours of the Biennale are 24/7, it is open around the clock. The possibility to have a look at a rising artwork, depends on fortune. Only the artist know where and when their artwork is installed, and how long it is exhibited.
