Ephra x Robert Irwin (LAS)

A huge light installation in an impressive location? That's what you can see at the Light Art Space (LAS) commissioned exhibition "Light and Space" by Robert Irwin at Berlin's Kraftwerk. And from Ephra there is an interactive poster and workshops to accompany the exhibition.

Robert Irwin, a pioneer of light and space art, is concerned in his work with human perception and the design of space. So that the youngest visitors – but also their parents – can relate to this abstract art, we at Ephra are developing an interactive poster for the exhibition that conveys Irwin’s approach and invites contemplation.
