A Stage of Luminosity

Kunstenaar Arno Coenen heeft op uitnodiging van Viewmaster Projects twee nieuwe sterk verticaal gerichte videowerken gemaakt waarin het unieke en waardevolle papieren beeldarchief van het Limburgse glazeniersatelier \u2018NV Glasschilderkunst F. Nicolas en zonen, sedert 1940 Max Weiss te Roermond\u2019 tot leven komt. De meterslange historische ontwerp- en werktekeningen, voornamelijk voor kerkelijke glas-in-lood ramen, (gemaakt tussen 1855 en1969) zijn door het SHCL in Maastricht gedigitaliseerd. Arno Coenen heeft een selectie uit het archief getransformeerd tot twee computeranimaties vol sprankelende kleur- en lichtvelden, driedimensionale effecten en caleidoscopische patronen. Twee verschillende videowerken die elk op een eigen manier ontsproten zijn uit de erfgoedcollectie en een compleet nieuw licht werpen op glas-in-lood ramen. Met respect voor het verleden is A Stage of Luminosity een eigentijds en eigenzinnig eerbetoon aan het oude ambacht en vakmanschap van de Limburgse glas-in-lood-kunstenaars. Coenen versmelt en vermengt de oude, werk- en ontwerptekeningen met de modernste digitale technieken en verbindt hiermee 19de en 20ste eeuwse beeldtaal met nieuwe media en communicatiemiddelen uit de 21ste eeuw. Door Coenens\u2019 koppelingen tussen erfgoed en digitale media roept het kunstproject nieuwe betekenissen op. A Stage of Luminosity vertelt een gelaagd beeldverhaal waarin naast universele thema\u2019s als geloof, hoop, liefde, onschuld, kwaad en de dood ook licht en kleur een hoofdrol spelen. Uniek aan A Stage of Luminosity is dat het een ruimtelijk, sculpturaal karakter heeft. Dit doordat de ranke hoge zuil vrij op het plein staat en aan twee zijden een ander videowerk presenteert. De extreem verticale maatvoering verwijst niet alleen naar het bronmateriaal (lange tekeningen voor gotische kerkramen), maar ook naar de eigentijdse \u2018vertical cinema\u2019. Onder invloed van smartphones worden er steeds meer verticaal geori\u00ebnteerde videowerken, videoclips, nieuwsitems en vlogs gemaakt en gedeeld. Ook op dit vlak komen verleden en heden in A Stage of Luminosity samen.

De componist en band hebben speciaal voor de opening van A Stage of Luminosity een nieuw muziekstuk geschreven dat eenmalig opgevoerd zal worden tijdens de opening op 19 september. Het optreden van 18 min. (even lang als de videowerken van Arno Coenen) is een performance en geen regulier bandoptreden. Muller en Habitants nemen de bezoekers op de openingsavond mee in soort meeslepend aanbiddingsritueel Een uniek live-optreden dat zich op vloeiende, dynamische manier beweegt tussen de kleurrijke en mystieke elementen die Arno Coenen in A Stage of Luminosity heeft gelegd. Na 19 sept. zal de aanbidding in stilte zijn.

The art project is a crossover between cultural heritage and new media and consists of two 12-meter high and 4-meter wide projections, displayed in public space. At the invitation of Viewmaster Projects, artist Arno Coenen has created two new video works in which the unique paper archive of Limburg\u2019s stained glassmaker studio “NV Glasschilderkunst F. Nicolas en zonen, Max Weiss in Roermond since 1940\u201d, comes to life.<\/p>\n

The Sociaal Historisch Centrum voor Limburg (SHCL) in Maastricht has recently digitized the studio\u2019s meters long historical design and working drawings. These were designed mainly for religious stainedglass windows (made between 1855 and 1969)..Arno Coenen has transformed a selection of drawings from the archive into two computer animations full of sparkling colors and light fields, three-dimensional effects and kaleidoscopic patterns. Each of the video works originated in its own way from the heritage collection and sheds a completely new light on stained glass windows.<\/p>\n

With respect for the past, A Stage of Luminosity<\/strong> is a contemporary and quirky tribute to the old craft and craftsmanship of the Limburg stained glass artists. Coenen merges and mixes old working and design drawings with the most modern digital techniques, thereby connecting 19th and 20th century visual language with new media and means of communication from the 21st century.\u00a0The art project evokes new meanings by re-interpreting heritage through the use of digital media,. A Stage of Luminosity<\/strong> can be considered a layered cartoon in which — in addition to universal themes such as faith, hope, love, innocence, evil and death — also light and color play a major role.\u00a0Concept and realization: Bart van den Boom \/ Viewmaster<\/p>\n

Opening
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Special one-off opening event:
\nThe Worship – \u00a0A live performance for A Stage of Luminosity
\nmusic by HABITANTS & Rutger Muller<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

The opening on Thursday evening, September 19, will take on a musical character and is organized collaboration with Musica Sacra Festival, Intro in situ and The Muziekgieterij. Atmospheric rock band HABITANTS and composer-designer Rutger Muller created a thrilling ritual opening performance for A Stage of Luminosity<\/strong>, helping the monumental audio-video work arise on Het Vrijthof square. HABITANTS and Muller took inspiration from the artwork’s religion-inspired imagery, making sure that both the visuals and the sounds swing dynamically between the darkly mysterious and the intensely colourful.<\/p>\n

Rutger Muller
\n<\/strong>Rutger Muller is electroacoustic composer (MA Music Technology) focused on the intricacies of timbre, acoustics and spatiality. He extract compositions or “soundspaces” from elements of ancient\/classical music, (dark) ambient, (dub) techno, free improvisation and architectural ideas. By shaping a semi-abstract sound, he wants to transcend the drama of emotion, to reach beyond it, towards the patterns and noises of consciousness (the micro cosmos), outer space (the macro cosmos) and nature. Through electro-acoustic sound design and collaborations with contemporary\u00a0(classical) instrumentalists, he want to shed new light on the spiritual (minimalist) essence of\u00a0musical cultures \u2014 and to investigate how to make sense of this in our hectic (digital)\u00a0culture. The results are often more mystic than abstract; on the edge between tranquil and\u00a0uncanny.<\/p>\n

HABITANTS
\n<\/strong>HABITANTS are the living proof that atmosphere, talent and honest music can still prevail in an ailing music industry. With a solid rock history, Ren\u00e9 Rutten of the Dutch band ‘the Gathering\u2019 decided to start a new band in 2015 with guitar player Gema Per\u00e8z and vocalist Anne van den Hoogen. With a mix of atmospheric, dynamic electric guitar melodies, silvery vocals and soft electronic and organic beats, the music can be best described as film music noir, creating a slow rollercoaster ride from bright colorful lights to uncomfortable pit dark caves. Habitants has Mirte Heutmekers on bas and Jerome Miedendorp de Bie on drums.<\/p>\n

Arno Coenen<\/strong>
\nThe working method of Arno Coenen has many similarities with the stained glass artists from the 19th and 20th centuries. Just as many artists from previous centuries carrying out assignments and working for (semi) public spaces, Coenen often also works on commission on projects in public spaces. Often embedded in an architectural framework, spectacular, decorative and lavish; just like in the old days, In his eclectic works (sometimes even complete Gesamtkunstwerken), Arno Coenen makes powerful linkages between “high culture” and “low culture”, between “street art” and the canon of art history. The “decorative” and the “popular” are important stylistic means in this regard. By combining the various stylistic means, his accessible, lavish artworks appeal to a wide audience.
