Have you experienced Lumonics?
Mel and Dorothy Tanners' light sculptures can be found at the Lumonics Light and Sound Gallery.Although its founders, Mel and Dorothy Tanner, have passed, the future looks brighter than ever for the— and archivist and publicist Barry Raphael wants to keep it that way.
A screen above Lumonics sculptures is illuminated by video produced by Dorothy Tanner and Marc Billard.In a recording, Dorothy explains that the main purpose of what became known as Lumonics is healing: “What’s really kept us going is that it’s not just doing art; it’s combining the light and the art that we do and music to bring people to a better, healing place.
The Tanners got help from their friends to bring these events to life. “An electronics person they met built them a color organ so that they could connect all the light sculptures to music," Raphael says."A couple of young guys who had done light shows for music groups gave them carousel slide projectors and overhead projectors.
But by 2005, Raphael recalls,"we were ready for a change.” The collective scouted locations from Asheville to San Francisco, “but they didn’t feel right for us," he says."Two couples we knew had relocated to Denver, and they thought it would be a great place for Lumonics. … That Colorado was cannabis-friendly was especially important to Dorothy." In 2008, the collective came to Denver, and Lumonics soon became an integral part of the city's art scene.
from other immersive art experiences is its intention, which is “to provoke a thought or emotion or state of euphoria rather than provide pure entertainment,” Raphael says.
