Santa Monica Shines A Light On Art

Daily / Feature

Santa Monica lights the night Sept. 28 with its third annual Glow. The signature event, the nation’s only nighttime arts celebration focused exclusively on original artwork, takes place from 7 p.m. to 3 a.m.

Inspired by Paris’ Nuit Blanche, Glow has commissioned 15 site-specific, interactive art projects to illuminate Santa Monica’s iconic pier and beach. For a single night, the heart of Santa Monica is transformed into a massive outdoor museum, where art exists not just to be seen, but to be experienced.

Glow represents a union of technology, creativity and natural splendor. With a distinguished roster of keynote artists including Mathieu Briand, Janet Echelman, Glenn Kaino, Victoria Vesna and Rebecca Mendéz, Glow is a veritable survey of contemporary art practices, ranging from large-scale earthworks to customized, participatory apps for mobile devices. All of the works in Glow reflect the event’s core mission: Re-envision both urban and natural landscapes through the eyes of contemporary artists.
