THE LIGHT MERIDIAN:

THE NORTH SEA AND THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA ARE CONNECTED BY TWO LIGHT TOWERS

LET US DRAW A CONNECTION LINE WITH OPTICAL ARTWORKS
CALL TO ARTISTS, TO LAND OWNERS, TO OPTICAL INDUSTRY, TO GOVERNMENTS.

the north sea and the mediterranean sea are connected at exactly 03°07'45“ E by two light towers // the tower (1932-1934) of the casino of blankenberge has blue transparent glass plates on the top // on the other side of europe on the mediterranean, also at 03 ° 07'45 “E, is the light tower 'el faro' of palamós (es) // this 03°07'45“ E is the light meridian light-meridian

Following the inherent theme of the year of light - optical technologies - muze'um L proposes to transform this light meridian into a visual line on the map, where in reality art-in-situ projects by international artists stand // to support their ideas they can use optical effects from mirrors or other optical instruments by renowned providers // also to develop their ideas the artists need sites or simple pieces of land, located on the light meridian // perhaps generous landowners or municipal authorities can help them // a catalog with the GPS coordinates of the different sites on the light meridian can be published //
