There will be tonight the official presentation of Ross Lovegrove’s Solar Tree in Vienna. However, hg.hu had the possibility to throw a glance at the brand new urban light-system of the Kaiserstadt on Saturday, during construction. Ultimately this is a fantastic collaboration between the world’s largest producer of Solar Cells Sharp Solar; Artemide, a leading force in the field of lighting innovation for the past 40 years, Ross Lovegrove, a visionary translator of technology for the 21st Century; and the MAK in Vienna supported by the Angewante, the leading school of Architecture and Design in Vienna. The Solar Trees communicate more than light… they communicate the trust of placing beautifully made, complex natural forms outside for the benefit of all of society becoming a museum that if folded inside out, the museum as an incubator of change in society… and with this the promotion of environmental science and the joy of the new aesthetics made possible by the digital process.



The ceremony begins on 8 October at 8.30 pm, in front of the Museum für Angewandte Kunst. Lovegrove will be the one of the foreign guests of Vienna’s Design Week this year; he participates on a conversation at MAK as well.
