Summary |
"One of a rare breed of artist - the neon artist, whose canvas is the night illuminated by a magic crayon of brilliant and sinuous, liquid light - Lili Lakich is also the founder and director of the world's only museum dedicated to this extraordinary art form, the Museum of Neon Art in Los Angeles. Lakich's own neon sculptures, created over a period of twenty years, have brought expressiveness to a medium sometimes considered cold and commercial. Often highly charged with emotion and monumental in size, they are like jewels salvaged from the modern world, transformed into icons of glistening beauty made all the more startling by their garnish orgins."--BOOK COVER |
