Description

Action or movement is played out in Armleder's multicolour fluorescent tube sculptures, as in this collapsed pile of coloured tubes. The exuberance of these works evokes Dan Flavin's investigations with light as well as the dazzling light of a nightclub, another conflation of antagonistic content and values.
