Lighting is one of the most crucial components of an art gallery. That is because lighting can have a dramatic impact on the appearance of the artwork.
It is also very important to make sure you choose the right installation for the kind of artwork you are displaying. Lights with a high CRI make all the difference – without these it is difficult to be sure that the colors in the artwork are accurately represented.
For gallery owners looking to illuminate their artworks in the best possible light, our product range offers maximum flexibility. We go the extra mile to ensure our customers get all the information they need about gallery lighting; that includes everything from mounting methods to the dimming options best suited to your gallery.
Fortunately, art gallery lighting installation guidelines are not too complex. You simply need a track light or light fitting, around 3 foot 3 inches (one metre) of track and a suspension kit for every 3 foot 3 inches of wall space to be lit. However, this does depend on the kind of ceiling you have, and its height.
It is likely that some more technical information will be needed if your setup is to be optimized. That is because the perfect lighting will be different for various types of artwork on display. This also applies to the kind of atmosphere you want to create.
The following aspects should be considered so you can make the right lighting choice:

You will need to take into account the effects of wall art lights on your paintings if you wish to optimize their appearance. The effects can vary, depending on the materials used to create the art; there will be variations due to the colors used, as well as the tone, shape and size of the paintings.

Depending on your ceiling height, you will have the choice of a few different mounting methods. As art galleries can vary so much in size and shape, it is necessary to examine these factors to determine the right lighting configuration. This decision is also affected by the location of your artwork in the room. For instance, there may be art on the walls as well as in the centre of the space.
One of the best things about track lighting is that it is so versatile. Users are able to create customized layouts for whichever kind of space they are working with. They can specify exactly how the light should be distributed, focusing it in various different directions.
You can opt for installation of suspension mounted tracks, or you might need surface mounted tracks. Gallery lighting works best when positioned at a height of 9 foot 2 inches to 9 foot 10 inches (2.8 to 3 metres).
As a CRI of 95 is so close to natural daylight, you can expect true vibrancy in your colors. Our technologies have been carefully designed to achieve this high CRI, which is why they bring artwork to life in a very real way.
It is possible that you will need to frequently adapt your lighting to optimize the different displays in your gallery. Every piece of artwork is different, so it is necessary to ensure the lighting is both timely and static.
