Lighting the Art Or a Photo Gallery

If there is a place where lighting is so important that it affects business, it has to be an art gallery. Lighting in an art gallery is of extreme importance. To provide the gallery with the right aura it is necessary to have the right type of lighting. Art galleries must use a balanced mix of all type of lighting; this includes task lighting, accent lighting and ambient lighting. However, accent lighting will be used more than the other forms as this will be used to focus on the different art that is present for display. The galleries, including lighting is kept simple in a gallery as the art needs to be the center of attraction. The lighting in galleries must be flexible. An object that is placed in one area can be moved to another easily to add to the aesthetic value of the gallery and the object on display. Hence the light should also be flexible in order to provide the right illumination in all the places in the gallery. In a gallery direct light also needs to be avoided. It may be possible to direct this light to different objects but it may not always be possible to provide sufficient light. A good choice when lighting art galleries is monorail and track lighting fixtures. Halogen lamps are also a good source of light in galleries.

Galleries also face a unique lighting problem; the area that is lit. The amount of light that is projected to an object is limited, this does not pose too much of a problem when the object that is lit is large. On the other hand if the object is small and the area around it is lit, then the attention will be drawn away from the object to the wall. Using the right lamp will help you solve this problem easily. Glare is also a problem that you will encounter in an art gallery, before you use accessories like barn doors etc, the lighting fixtures need to be mounted at the right place. This will help you to decide whether glare will be a problem or not.

The fixtures need to be mounted at an angle of 30 degrees to avoid a glare on the art work. To achieve this effect in narrow hallways the use of monorail lighting is advised. Apart from all this a gallery has the tricky business of providing lighting for 3 dimensional arts. This is more difficult than lighting hanging art work. The light reflected from each object will greatly affect the appearance and the impact of the object on the audience. Lighting from one direction only will not be sufficient as many times it will produce shadows.
