Written by Frederick Bentham, a renowned pioneer in stage lighting technology, this comprehensive work serves as both a practical guide and a thought-provoking critique of the industry. Bentham navigates the complex relationship between light, architectural design, and the artistic requirements of a performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis second edition provides an extensive examination of modern developments, including the evolution of lighting control systems, computer memory, and the nuanced application of colour and optics. Beyond the hardware, Bentham addresses the fundamental philosophy of theatre planning, challenging readers to consider how light shapes the visual experience of an audience. With a blend of technical rigour and wit, the book bridges the gap between the engineer’s focus on circuitry and the designer’s pursuit of artistic expression. Whether you are a technician, architect, or a student of the theatre, this indispensable volume illuminates the essential principles and modern innovations that transform the stage into a compelling space for storytelling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsed (good, see images, minor dust jacket wear)\u003cbr\u003eHardcover\u003cbr\u003eISBN 0273002104","brand":"Blue Pigeon Goods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46374409142422,"sku":"a3_EZARESIJ32GQ","price":54.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/5189\/4422\/files\/3807_c4ceac86-10e5-4d96-a88c-0263510b8a79.jpg?v=1778057995","url":"https:\/\/bluepigeongoods.com\/products\/the-art-of-stage-lighting-by-frederick-bentham","provider":"Blue Pigeon Goods Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
