Light is the basis of human sight. Light reflects off of objects and enters the eye where it is channelled to the retina and perceived as colours and shapes. Art has played with these perceptions over time, challenging viewers with what they see and understand from each piece.
The art historian Wolfgang Schöne divided the history of painting in terms of light into two periods: "proper light" (eigenlicht), which would correspond to medieval art; and "illuminating light" (beleuchtungslicht), which would develop in modern and contemporary art (Über das Licht in der Malerei, Berlin, 1979).
In art, light refers to the use of illumination and shadow to create mood, depth, and dimension in a composition. This concept is pivotal in both Mannerism and Baroque Art, where artists manipulated light to enhance emotional intensity and guide the viewer's focus through the artwork.
Light in art includes using actual light--the lighting of artwork, how a light source might interact with an artwork, the use of reflections, and using light itself as an artistic medium--as well as using implied light to create the illusion of light in two-dimensional work.
Definition. Light art is a genre of contemporary art that uses light as its primary medium, creating immersive experiences and transforming spaces through illumination.
Light art or the art of light is generally referring to a visual art form in which (physical) light is the main, if not sole medium of creation. Uses of the term differ drastically in incongruence; definitions, if existing, vary in several aspects.
Light refers to the natural agent that stimulates sight and makes things visible. In art, it is not just a physical phenomenon but a crucial element in conveying mood, depth, and meaning.
