has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.

About me
Laurent Fort (laurentfort)
From audiovisual school to sound engineering. The multifaceted experiences and ranks in different areas inspire me to create a distinctive and personal style. These Light Art installations express an unusual balance between nature and artifice. I focus my work on new perceptions of light. Wellness and contemplation, emotion and sensation are my main goals to create unique pieces of light to be connected with nature and yourself. The light produces a multitude and incredible game of suggestive reflections that animate the space and your imagination. Specialized designs for individual commissions, his pieces had been part of galleries and design exhibitions and fashion magazines; AD Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, Marie Claire, Glamour, to name a few. In 2005 was awarded, "Young Designer Award" by AD magazine Europe. He has collaborated with ETRO, The Baglioni Hotel in London and Ferragamo's Fashion Show.
