Kinetica is an awesome showcase of Kinetic art with over 150 artists exhibited. I was astounded by the diversity at this show. There were flashing lights, colour-changing-gyrating ribbons, drawing machines, butterflies that followed my movements, pictures drawn by GPS and a Heineken keg robot! This is the top show for the weekend – but be quick – it ends Sunday! It offers wonderment by the bucket load for all ages.
It was excellent talking to the different artists who have greatly contrasting backgrounds from physics to painting. Many of them work collaboratively to achieve ambitious visions; successful through the different skill sets each bring. Roseline de Thélin was one of our favourites. She had produced some dazzling figurative sculptures composed of light. See picture below
Curator Dianne Harris has put together a show that doesn’t stand still. If we eventually pry the footage from yesterday (tech probs) be sure to see more accurately the wonders of kinetic art! I think this show is very exciting because you probably won’t see anything like its quality or scale till Kinetica 2011.
Have a look at the images below for a static viewpoint that cannot compare to the life and dynamic of this electro-charged experience!
Exhibition is near Baker Street Tube, only until Sunday 7th Feb
