Luzy On The Wall

When contemporary art becomes light … German artist Ingo Maurer, a German pioneer of designer lighting, hasn’t lost his sense of humour! He’s unveiled a new work of art: Luzy on the Wall (2018), a surrealistic, provocative, funny yet absurd wall lamp that highlights Maurer’s enduring enthusiasm for risk-taking. This wall lamp consists of a blue rubber household glove nailed to the wall, with bulbs at the ends of the fingers! The glove is made of a high-strength flexible plastic. It is hand-painted in a deep Klein blue. There are semi-rigid cables inside the glove which can be folded to give the hand its shape.
