Bruce Nauman
Contemporary (media) artist
After visiting an exposition of Nauman at the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin, I was very much intrigued by his work. As soon as I got home, I started looking for everything I could find about him and his work. Later I also visited some of his work in other museums around Europe.I am a big fan of "multidisciplinarity" within a lot of aspects of life: multiculturalism, interdisciplinary art, different fields of science collaborating, etc. Nauman can deliver a message or feeling in a thousand ways: "ordinary" neon lights, sculptures, photographs, audio/video installations varying from a single screen to an entire room filled up with (horrifying) moving images and sounds, various "empty" rooms, etc. His ability to touch the inner you by using so many different approaches and techniques has been inspiring for me.Some examples of his work are below.A visitor tries out Bruce Nauman's Green Light Corridor at the Move: Choreographing You exhibition at the Hayward Gallery, Southbank Centre, London
