Abstract

For sculptors wishing to utilize luminosity in their work, neon has many virtues and possibilities. The author sees himself as a generalist with specialties. For the past several years, his specialties have been primarily concerned with luminism and kineticism. Because of his involvement with luminism, he has developed considerable expertise with electric gas discharge tubes, or ‘neon’, resulting not only in aesthetic but technical innovations as well. He describes here his portable neon fabrication system, which has made possible projects and installations previously thought too difficult or unfeasible to pursue.
