Lakich
For Light, For Love, for Life

Hardcover book by

Lili Lakich.

 

Few artists in our time have had the extraordinary impact on an art form as has Lili Lakich on the development of neon sculpture. When neon declined as a medium for advertising in the 1960s and ‘70s, Lakich was one of the pioneers in its rebirth as an artistic medium. And when galleries and museums failed 

to exhibit work in electric media, Lakich founded the Museum of Neon Art (MONA) in Los Angeles in 1981, bringing to the public the work of exciting new artists working in cutting-edge technologies. The phenomenon of light has intrigued artists for centuries. Renaissance chiaroscuro and late-19th Century Impressionism both made light their raison d’etre. Turner, Monet and Van Gogh were all painters whose work seduced with light. Today, the list includes artists whose love of light has led them to neon - the glowing medium that has only been possible since the invention of electricity and the development of luminous tubing.
