Nebular Wall Sculpture (1975) by Mel Tanner

Dorothy Tanner Sculptures (1952-1955)

Nov. 2019: From the Beginning Exhibit

From Nov. 8 to Dec. 31 in 2019, the Lumonics School of Light Art showcased a number of lighted cubes created by the students who each took the 12-hour class. The exhibit took place at The Storeroom, located at 1700 Vine Street in Denver, and managed by Brendan Gill.

The title of the exhibit, From the Beginning, got its name from including light columns and cubes by Dorothy and Mel Tanner, the building blocks of their Lumonics art form, and what we teach the next generation of light artists how to make. The light sculptures on the wall were Dorothy Tanner’s inspirational messages, first introduced to the public in 2018 at The McNichols Civic Center Building.
