LUCES, the first webserie dedicated to Light Art, released today the first episode of the second season, created and coordinated by the Light Art curator Gisella Gellini and the director Cecilia Brianza, and produced by students from the Light Art and Design course at the School of Design of the Politecnico di Milano.

The series offers an in-depth look at Light Art artists Aether & Hemera, Antonio Barrese, Nicola Boccini, Arthur Duff, Chiara Dynys, Maria Cristiana Fioretti, Johannes Pfeiffer, Marco Nereo Rotelli, and Donatella Schilirò, who opened the doors of their studios to allow students to document their meetings and interviews, creating nine episodes each lasting 10-15 minutes.

As Cecilia Brianza explains:

«In the documentaries, the students were able to visualize the artists' poetic and bring out further themes to reflect on, such as the relationship between art and science, immigration, the preservation of our planet».

The episodes of the LUCES documentary series will be published on the YouTube channel every Saturday starting from today.
