Eric Staller
By 1985 Eric Staller had been exhibiting his work in galleries and museums for 10 years. He became disillusioned with the Art World, a world that seemed academic and joyless to him. He had grown tired of preaching to the converted. Breaking out of these confines took the form of the LIGHTMOBILE, a Volkswagen Beetle covered with 1659 computerized lights. Eric Staller finished building it in March, 1985, after 5 months of work. He drove it all around New York City, on more than 100 nights. The reactions were amazing: the smiles, waves, thumbs-up, comments shouted. It was the most exhilerating experience of his life. He now had a mission: to share his optimism with as many people as possible. Hefollowed LIGHTMOBILE with other mobile public artworks, like for example the BUBBLEBOAT 1986 and BUBBLEHEADS 1987. This continuing series Staller calls 'urban UFOs'. Since 1994 he lives and works in Amsterdam. Find out more about his life and work on his website.
