Meet Liliane Lijn, the American artist who pioneered the use of technology to make moving art.
Artist Liliane Lijn is best known for her kinetic artworks. (Kinetic art is art that moves.)
In the early 1960s Liliane Lijn was at the forefront of exploring new ways of using technology and materials to make art.
Surrealism, Greek mythology, female identity and developments in technology are just some of the things that have inspired the artist.
'I try to make work that will allow people to still their mind and look at things with a different eye', says Lijn.

Finally, after all these years, Liliane gets more recognition here. This type of video is well overdue for this artist.

Artists like Lijn are changing how the privileged art world regard women artists. She's a pioneer.

I love the idea of spinning the word so fast you lose its meaning. As someone studying graphic design, you realize quickly that whenever text is incorporated into art or design people look to that to give the piece its meaning. I'm always looking for ways around that, one of my favourites is to steal song lyrics, but putting text in motion is quite an interesting concept. Definitely going to have to research this some more.

Thank you for this: I think I'd seen (her?) cone/s somewhere but had no idea who created them. She has lots of ideas, wonderful! Lucky her never having to think about making a living from her art, some of us have to try to...

@@vinayseth1114 I had a very serious accident and lost my job - I couldn't do it any more and my employer didn't make any effort to adapt to the New Me = brain injury, odd when they had signed up to be the best at making adaptations for disabled people. Older people and those of us with illnesses/disabilities have a real hard time working - daily life is already a huge struggle: we work constantly to try to do all the things that were so easy before, but this work has no 'value' so we must beg for social security money which (if you eventually get it) isn't enough to live on, pay the rent & bills, transport etc. Employers are reluctant to employ disabled people and fit jobs around what we can do and at times we are able to (and usually jobs for disabled workers are not paid much and almost no choices) - odd when the laws say they must and they're losing out: we're very hard workers and can often offer many necessary skills - but sadly these skills have 'no value'. We all contribute to society (and pay sales tax on everything we buy) in very different ways; I put my art into exhibitions which adds to artistic culture - but 'no value' in that? Got to stop: hurts to type & I'm getting scrambled, but anyway maybe you know all this and were just being devil's advocate to get a response?! All the best to you.

Stunning pieces of work and so inspirational. I actually spoke to Liliane when she came to give talk at the East Coast School of Art and Design in Grimsby in the 2010s. I remember she talked about William S Burroughs and areogel- the substance made of virtually nothing..

2:03. ... It’s not male it’s feminine’ and yet these are large erect cones ... and after shooting acid a realisation of how important it was to ground oneself ... surrounded by huge erect kinetic cylinders. C’mon man ... 🤦‍♂️

@patnewson6908 2 ай бұрын

C’mom man? How about woman? Everything ‘erect’ does not represent man, does it? At first I was thinking about the cones as male, but watching as she explained that as they revolved I became concentrated on the revolving colour bands, as she said we become focused on those bands rather than the body.
