history of uv-art

animals and their naturally fluorescent or phosphorescent dies

in nature some plants, animals and minerals possess naturally fluorescent dies or phosphorescent dies ( self-luminous dies ). therefore, for example, the sea anemone, the emperor scorpion or the fluorite are shining most at sunrise and at sunset. why? here the natural proportion of uv acts in relation to the normal light in the strongest way. they ( the animals mentioned above ) are shining as they were illuminated additionally by artificial uv-light.

the german physicist johann wilhelm ritter and uv-light

in 1801 the german physicist johann wilhelm ritter observed the rays which were beyond the violet end of the visible spectrum had been incredibly effective in blackings by silver-chloride-paper. at first he called these rays "the oxidizing rays" to emphasize their chemical effectualness and also to distinguish these rays from the infrared "warmth-rays" at the other end of the spectrum.

uv was described as "chemical radiation" until the 19th century. nowadays, we use only the names "infrared- radiation" and "ultraviolet- radiation" to characterise these different kinds of rays.

at the beginning of the 20th century people have discovered the curing effects of artificial uv-light. in the 30ies of the 20th century first uv-lamps were produced. the illusion that something illuminates itself comes due to a reflection of phosphorescent and fluorescent colors. one light which comes out of the blacklight is the uv-light which has much energy.

from the 50ies upward artists started to work with the luminous power of fluorescent colors while doing so they have created a complete new style of art - the art of blacklight.

within the 60ies and 70ies artists used the phosphor colors again and again, in particular in the part of esotericism.

in the 80ies in the music scene ( festivals, parties, stage performances etc. ) people used more and more blacklight as an kind of art ( for example string-art ).

this kind of art is trans-cultural and does not appeal specially to certain people like for example humanists, but this kind of art affects people of every age, of every educational level, of every religion, of every culture /extension/additionismus_site/var/storage/images/kategorieseite/kunstgedanken/persoenliche_kunstgedanken/jugend_und_kunst/julia_6_schlafend/61840-1-ger-DE/julia_6_schlafend_article_lightbox.jpg:::/extension/additionismus_site/var/storage/images/kategorieseite/kunstgedanken/persoenliche_kunstgedanken/jugend_und_kunst/julia_6_schlafend/61839-1-ger-DE/julia_6_schlafend_article_lightbox.jpg:::0::::::::::::lightbox_0children, /extension/additionismus_site/var/storage/images/kategorieseite/kunstgedanken/persoenliche_kunstgedanken/jugend_und_kunst/weidemueller_9_lara_bunt/61744-1-ger-DE/weidemueller_9_lara_bunt_article_lightbox.jpg:::/extension/additionismus_site/var/storage/images/kategorieseite/kunstgedanken/persoenliche_kunstgedanken/jugend_und_kunst/weidemueller_9_lara_bunt/61743-1-ger-DE/weidemueller_9_lara_bunt_article_lightbox.jpg:::0::::::::::::lightbox_1
