Topic Reading-Vol.730-4/11/2014

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Dubai gets trippy with Festival of Lights.
What kind of event could be created by a group of artists, designers and architects get together in Lyon, France or in a desert city Dubai? Festival of Lights.
Lyon hosts a global benchmark in festive lighting every year. This year first time ever, the city cosponsored a new lighting event in Dubai to bring in people, attention and possibly money for investment from all over the world.
As the city is artificially made in the tip of the desert peninsula, modern artistic event seems a good fit. It is quite natural to witness most contemporary or progressive arts have been created and shown in places where money and power sit, such as and Vienna and Paris in the 18-19th and New York in the 20th century.
The modern fusion show of lights and music looks no less attracting or inviting than those then-progressive but now-classical painting or musical works.
Enjoy seeing the photos and video show of the lighting festival.
