The Walkway to the East Wing – National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.

The Walkway to the East Wing – National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.
The moving walkway between the East and West Buildings has taken on a new dimension wih the addition of a site-specific LED sculpture by artist Leo Villareal. About 41000 LEDs were inserted in the vaulted architecture of the walkway. The artist then programmed the electronic circuitry to form kinetic configurations of white light conveying associations ranging from artificial life to organic form. The programming both instructs the lights and allows for an element of chance. While it is possible that a pattern will repeat during a viewer’s experience, it is unlikely.
