'Superluminal' Exhibition, Light Art Museum Budapest

'Superluminal' Exhibition, Light Art Museum Budapest
Now on until 20 May. The ongoing exhibition is featuring more than 40 internationally-listed artists from around the world aiming to present light as a physical and natural phenomenon as well as an indicator of technological development.

Light itself (its wave and particle nature, its physical and optical characteristics, its biological significance, etc.) is at the heart of the artworks and the various themes they explore - from supernovae to black holes, from artificial nature to parallel universes, from programmed neural networks to radiating glass objects, or from the Northern Lights encased in crystalline structures to the choreography of light on the retina - seek new perspectives for a deeper understanding of the nature of light, within or beyond the realms of visibility.

The Superluminal exhibition is accompanied by a guided tour, optionally in English as well.

If you would like to book a guided tour in English and there are more than 10 of you, please send an email to kozonseg@lam.xyz to arrange the time and details of your custom reservation.

Swarm Field: The Power of Light Attraction explores the tension between human-driven industrial growth and the resilience of the natural world.

Employing industrial materials such as laser lights and electric cable, the installation offers a critique on the impact of urban light pollution on insect populations. The audience is invited to interact with the artwork by illuminating transparent paper blooms suspended on cables, representing a new form of ‘natural’ habitat, shaped and distorted by industrial influence.
