Dorothy Tanner Bio
Dorothy Tanner

Mel Tanner (1926-1993)

 

"If inner space is the last frontier, then Mel and Dorothy Tanner are its pioneers. They create an aesthetic experience unlike any other. A walk through the Lumonics Gallery is a bit like a tour of some futuristic spaceship. The plastic sculptures blink, drip, turn and glow. Like the Wizard of Oz behind a curtain, they create a separate reality."
Barbara Marshall, WPBT (PBS)

"...not a variation on a theme but a wholly new art form."
Ken Plutnicki, The Miami Herald

 


Dorothy Tanner's Moodscape 1 Meditation Room



Welcome to our website. If you are a first-time visitor, we encourage you to explore the Moodscape 1 Meditation Room, consisting of limited editions of the Tanner art (some originals are still available). Dorothy selected three wall sculptures and one fountain of Mel Tanner's for the installation. The Moodscape Room will be an investment that you will appreciate every day, with mental, physical, and emotional benefits.

You may not be accustomed to purchasing art online. To become more familiar with the Tanners and the luminal art form they have pioneered, there is extensive bio information about the Tanners, review excerpts, and many more art works to see.

We encourage you to visit the studio if you are in South Florida, or call us toll-free/ email us with general or specific questions you may have before making a buying decision. Each sculpture has a signature plate and date, and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Enjoy your journey into "inner space."

Future Projection

The search is on...for a person, or people of like mind, who has access to, or knows of the right location for the Lumonics Light Museum — who would also be willing to help us achieve our goal.

Our intention is to once again make this extraordinary experience available to people. For over 30 years, Lumonics has demonstrated how spiritually uplifting and healing an environment comprised of art, fountains, light, color, and music can be for participants.



Lumonics Theatre (Panoramic View with Projection)
Fort Lauderdale, FL 2005



In these stressful times the need for the soothing, mind-expanding, positive effects of a Lumonics adventure exists. Our files are full of letters of appreciation from people of all walks of life as well as the acclaim of art critics and media people.

We envision a space large enough to contain all of the art (but not so large as to lose intimacy) and seat about 100 people comfortably. The sculptures, fountains, sound system, projectors, video, lasers, music, and seating already exist (also the people to operate it), all waiting to be installed in another location.

The facility would contain a gallery and cafe.

Lumonics could also be an addition to an existing facility: a wellness center, spa, hotel, etc.

We look forward to hearing from you byyemail or 1.877.979.3161 toll free.
