LEDs have been used to change the way art is viewed in China.
Z-Power LEDs from Seoul Semiconductor were used as spotlights for the exhibits at Da An Art Gallery in Zhongshan City, China.
One benefit of LEDs is that they do not emit ultraviolet radiation, so do not required the filters used with traditional halogen and fluorescent lamps to protect the pictures.
The installation replaced 50W halogen lamps with 7.2W LED spotlights, which according to Seoul Semiconductor could have a 85% power saving.
The Z-Power LED P4 series used in the gallery spotlights has the colouring rending index of 93 indicating high level of natural expression of light colours, and high efficiency, which is optimal for lighting of museums and galleries.
Da An Art Gallery located in Zhongshan City in Guangdong Province contains the works of Jun Tien Lee, a famous calligrapher and sculptor in that city.
The gallery is replacing the halogen lamps and fluorescent lamps with LEDs in a eco-initiative.
