  • Art DonovanEclectic Lighting
  • ARCHITECT Magazine (9/7/2007)
  • Designer Art Donovan fabricates a variety of items, but he says lighting has always been his passion. “There's just something about an object that glows in the dark that's fascinated me since I can remember,” he says. In 1990, he started making lights in a “mid-century Modern style,” but he says his tastes have become more eclectic, including Indian, Moroccan, Asian, island, and other world influences. The Lotus lamp, shown here, came about when a client in New York City wanted an art deco design in a non-traditional style. The shade features a 3-D moiré fabric. As the viewer moves around the lamp, Donovan says, the shapes seem to shift. Along with working with clients on custom lighting, Donovan can modify his own designs, which are displayed on his Web site; make matching lighting for existing pieces; and create whole-room lighting. He works with many materials, from poplar to brass.
