Light Graffiti

Who would have ever connect, the artist, Man Ray to the new art medium of light graffiti.  Man Ray used long exposures and moving a light source in front of the camera to create his work, 'Space Writing.'
A long time may have pass since 1937, when Man Ray created this piece, but his idea has influenced many young artists.
Light graffiti is fascinating to look at- it catches one's eye.  This style would be a great new medium to use for advertising.  Seeing your first piece of light graffiti will stick with you.  Seeing it will make you want to research it- find the history of light graffiti and find out what the artist was trying to say with their piece.

People working in marketing and graphic design should really grasp this new medium. It would be a great eye-catching ad or picture that will make people stop and look closer.
