ART DESIGNED FOR SHOPPING

Selfridges department store London, has just opened an art installation by Brian Eno entitled LUMINOUS, 77 million paintings. And that's just what it is. A series of computer fed images gently emerging to create a constantly evolving artwork. Alannah Weston, Creative Director of Selfridges explains that the store is not a gallery for art-articulate visitors. It's a living, breathing organism with 30 thousand customers passing through each day. "We sometimes need to stop people in their tracks. It's the sense of wonder that will remain with them" she says. I say it's a great idea and totally fit for purpose.eno.jpg
