Paul Friedlander - Kinetic light sculptor


"Welcome to the house of chaos." Message with a double sense. Firstly, caught offhand by my early arrival, my hosts have neither had the time to change, nor to clear up the toys that litter the floorboards. Secondly, it refers to the movement that offered Paul Friedlander the opportunity present his sculptures to the general public in 1990. He was, at that time, at the head of a group of artists and scientists involved in exploring the "theory of chaos", advancing the hypothesis that it is always possible to meet the unexpected in the middle of ordered phenomena: the famous "butterfly effect", dear to so many meteorologists and the "determinist systems" of mathematicians.
