Reading Light

Festival d'Automne, Paris
5 October – 4 November 2011

Reading Light – the work presented by Raqs in Oscar Niemeyer’s iconic building for the French Communist Party at the Place Colonel Fabien – is a set of illuminated signs that use text, typography, light sources and electricity to conjure a renewal of human aspirations. The exhibition is part of FIAC 2011.
