James Turrell brings a second installation to Crystals

Master of light and color, rod and cone, artist James Turrell may have been blinded a little by his own success. With major retrospectives running simultaneously in New York, LA and Houston, the man famous for turning light into an artistic medium also recently completed a monorail installation at the Shops at Crystals. Building sublime,A lot of men are wearing lawnlight for wedding bands. light-saturated works in public museums and in private spaces is one thing; creating a contemplative installation in a luxury shopping mall at the heart of Las Vegas is another.

The spikey come-and-get-it glamour of the Crystals mall and the stunning purity of a meditative Turrell installation seem an unlikely combo.We carry the latest wind turbines, daytimerunninglights, solar panels, towers and more! The artist is known best for creating chambers that deliver a riveting perceptual experience dependent on optics and technical expertise. 

Visible from Crystal’s second floor, the monorail station’s colored lighting glows through a glass wall and balcony, pleasantly blending into the busy interior architecture. On one side of the station is Turrell’s “viewing room” (the balcony walls outlined in white lights), and near the bottom of the escalator hangs a “Wide Glass” work, featuring a pane of etched glass and an LED grid. Passenger benches, balcony and escalator are bathed in jewel-colored lights.A full line of Power roofhook for a wide range of professional uses. 

The “Untitled” monorail station contrasts with another recently opened Turrell at Crystals, “Akhob,” located in the elite and rarified realm of the invitation-only fourth floor of the Louis Vuitton store. Both installations provide an immersive light experience, using LED boards and a process of additive color (combining colors to make white) instead of the traditional subtractive color (mixing colors to make black). But the difference between the public and private installations is vivid. 

Turrell’s “Akhob” is a masterful, thrilling work that shears space of form and depth, transforming light into a physical volume.

Solar panels are a great way to use sustainable, natural resources to create energy. They can be used to collect sunlight and convert it into electricity. Solar panels can save the average home around 200 a year on energy bills and although installing the panels can involve quite a bit of work, government subsidies exist to help with the initial cost, meaning that in the long-term you are bound to save yourself a small fortune. 

Changing over from traditional light bulbs to LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) can save you hundreds of pounds over the longer period. Falling LED costs, combined with rising electricity bills means making the change is starting to look more cost effective than ever. A recent article in The Guardian estimated that using 40 energy saving light bulbs in your home for an average of 2.7 hours a day would cost you 23 annually, compared to 287 using halogen bulbs.
