This exhibition features works that exploit and express one of the most essential elements of photography—light. For years, artists have been fascinated with how light is produced, how it is transmitted, and how it can be transformed. Although photographers have used light in the traditional sense to create photographic prints, others have expanded the process by incorporating light in the presentation of their work. Many artists have recognized the dynamic quality of movement and kinetic energy often found in the still photograph, and have experimented with a variety of techniques ranging from filmmaking to light sculpture environments.
