Fine Art Lighting
You already know the art that’s made a home within your gallery—whether personal or professional—is unique, exquisite, and one-of-a-kind. We don’t need to tell you that.
But, we do ask that you take a moment and truly consider a few, important questions about the art that hangs in your daily life. Ask yourself—is the lighting in your home or gallery maximizing the effect that your art has on everyone who sees it? Is the lighting in your home inadvertently damaging or destroying the longevity of your invaluable art? Is the true potential of your art being maximized to the aesthetic that the artist was aiming for?
If you answered no to any (or all) of these questions, it sounds like you’re in need of professional, stunning, and uniquely designed fine art lighting—a plea that we, Illuminations Lighting and Design, are more than willing and able to oblige.
What is Fine Art Lighting?
You have the gist of it already, but if you’re still scratching your head and asking, “what exactly is fine art lighting?”, know this—you’re not alone.
Fine art lighting is more than just a cleverly placed lamp to showcase your beautiful art in a better light—in fact, fine art lighting is an art form in itself (if you ask us), with a few specific goals in mind. Fine art lighting is the carefully thought-out, mindfully crafted design and installation of safe, beautiful lighting that helps to showcase and accent the art in your collection.
But, of course, that’s not all fine art lighting is—it’s more than just a definition.
As we said before, for us, fine art lighting is an art form in itself. It requires excellence in several areas, but especially these three:
- Maximize the capability to foster the artistic expression and not inadvertently damage the art in the process
- Installation and design from trained, licensed electrical contractors who understand how to install the equipment for safe and reliable performance
- Installer to view the project with the eye of an artist to achieve the maximum aesthetic, purposeful outcome
So again, we implore you to ask yourself—is your collection of stunning, unique art being properly showcased? Do you feel confident that the lighting in your studio or gallery is offering only benefits and zero side effects that could potentially harm your art? Is the art in your collection truly maximized by the lighting that illuminates it?
