"Rendez Vous" at the Guggenheim

For this temporary exhibition, most of the lighting in the ceiling is removed, and replaced with glowing pedestals and floor-mounted theatrical lighting. This provides a playful approach creating unexpected revelations from the objects on display, while maintaining a respectful attitude towards the architecture.
