LASVIT presents Laterna Magica exhibition at Euroluce 2017
Following the successful presentation at the Salone del Mobile 2016, LASVIT introduced new collections designed by Kengo Kuma, Zaha Hadid Design, Ed Ng & Terence Ngan and Yabu Pushelberg. The company also showcased an exquisite selection of its lights collection portfolio, developed together with world-renowned designers, legends of Czech glass design and contemporary Czech designers.
Lasvit's Euroluce 2017 exhibition, Laterna Magica, builds on the mutual relation between objects, light and space. The name is derived from an early type of image projector, developed in the 17th century. The original device used hand-painted sheets of glass, a lens and a bright light-source to project images in space. Using video mapping, LASVIT simulate this principle through glass objects and light to tell the unique stories of artistic visions revealed through glass. “We were interested in the architect’s perception of light as object in space and the materialisation of light,“ adds Maxim Velcovsky, Creative Director of LASVIT.
The show concept also reflects a six-decade memory of Expo 58 in Brussels, where Czech artists exhibited the greatest innovations of their time – the famous Laterna Magika multimedia theater as well as the works of outstanding Czech glass artists Stanislav Libensky and Rene Roubicek. Their designs are also included in LASVIT’s design lighting portfolio and will be displayed at Euroluce 2017. LASVIT is proud to present the work of these iconic designers, who set the standards for generations of contemporary designers and glass artists.
