There are even smaller light art pieces than what we see in Thesmallest festival. Some of them have been displayed at Gallery 1:10 - Mood Board,
a project by artist Anna Lidberg. It is a miniature gallery with miniature artworks from different artists, some of them using light.

As seen at the ever-lovely and totally redommended Arvika Ljus! festival in 2024. https://arvikaljus.se/en/arvika-ljus-2024/

Pipilotti Rist's Selbstlos im Lavabad is a milestone in the history of tiny art. I still can remember my bafflement reading the artwork info on the wall in MoMa PS1, but seeing the artwork nowhere. Until I realised I was standing on it.

I know François Morellet's pieces, where ultra-straight neon tubes hang mid-air like ballerinas frozen in their jump, and Creation n° 6 surprised me with its free flowing doodle-likeness. I kind of felt this piece winking at me, and found myself smiling.

As seen in the Brilliant Works exhibition at Museum Ritter.

09.04. @#interlause (LauseRia, language: engl.)
18h Vernissage
19h Panel discussion with various artists
Theme: What does it mean to make (media)art in times of BigTech and how to resist with artistic means?

Exhibition (yard 5, starirs E)
10.-12.04. 16-20ha
13.-17.04. 16-19h
Finissage:
17.04. 17h

Lausitzer Str. 10, 10999 B.

At InterLause#17, we discuss with the artists Kathrin Hunze, Helena Nikonole, Navid Razavi, Conny es Said and others what it means to create tech art in the age of Big Tech and its commercially and ideologically driven LLMs and the like. Can niches be found where artists can still move freely? What artistic means do they employ to drive resistance against Big Tech? Or will everyone ultimately become mere cogs in the machine of oversized AIs, forced to accept overpriced subscriptions?

Miriam Prantl's Led-relief Square is a fine example of minimalism overwhelming the The Marli Hoppe-Ritter Collection: simple at first sight, unfolding with some time spent with it. The Collection, based on what I saw at the Brilliant Works exhibition, is also lacking artworks with flashy colours for flashy colours' sake. Much appreciated.
