Turning Public Fountains Into Light Sculptures

Share this Post:

BERLIN — Nils R. Schultze is an artist who has been using light instead of water to transform public fountains for the past several years. The Berlin fountain pictured here has been transformed by a light sculpture using color-changing illuminated strands curving in a five-meter radius. Other fountain projects use a skyward spray of light instead of water. This month, a total of four Berlin fountains are being transformed by Schultze’s designs, including fountains located on Pariser Platz near the Brandenburg Gate, in Viktoria Louise-Platz, in Urbanstrasse and in Köllnischer Park.
