Festival of Lights Berlin - Time guards on tour by Manfred Kielnhofer

The Festival of Lights is one of the largest illumination festivals in
the world. Every year for twelve days in October, Berlin’s
world-famous landmarks and monuments are dressed in spectacular light.
German and international artists and lighting designers present
extraordinary illuminations, light art and creative designs. The
festival is accompanied by numerous cultural events, all exploring the
theme “Light”. The festival is an admission-free, top artistic event
for an audience of millions. It generates massive media interest
worldwide, and as a result, promises real sustainability.

Time guards by Manfred Kielnhofer
The constant struggle with concepts of space, sculptures and
installations as well as the engagement of mysticism and primal
religions led the Austrian artist to create “timeguards“. The first
timeguard was built in 2007 and is reminiscent of a withdrawn monk.
Kielnhofer likes to present his sculptures at exciting locations. They
appear and disappear. You can never anticipate where they will show up
next time, reminding us that we are never unobserved. Every one of our
actions is seen by the guards and evaluated. They were already in
existence a long time before humans populated the earth.

Interlux Chair, designed in 2002

http://bonhams.com/eur/auction/18959/lot/230/

Interlux chair by Manfred Kielnhofer

Interlux chair literally lights up the room.

Reminiscent of American minimalist artist Dan Flavin’s fluorescent
light sculptures, this unique chair literally lights up the room.
Manfred Kielnhofer plays with fluorescent light and transparent tubes
that change colour creating an out of this world atmosphere. The chair
is a composition of unique long neon lighting contained in transparent
tubes placed horizontally; a surprise of what one can do with
commercially available fluorescent light fixtures. Also available in
environmentally friendly paper tubes.

Manfred Kielnhofer was born in Haslach an der Mühl, Austria. He is
self-taught and works with many different mediums; including,
painting, film, photography, installation, performance and sculpture.
His work usually concerns the human figure, and its different forms
and movements, focusing mainly on the peculiarities of human nature.
He uses the human form as a tool, either on a canvas or in a
sculpture.
