Elation Professional has expanded its Artiste line of theatrical-grade moving heads with the new Artiste Van Gogh, an LED Wash luminaire designed for accurate color reproduction for color projections. Coupled with internal framing and a “whisper quiet” operation, the product release says, “it is ideally suited for television, theater and corporate events, but has application anywhere powerful and even wash coverage is desired." The fixture is now shipping.
A 380W bright white, high-CRI LED engine (6,200K) emits up to 16,000 lumens of quality, flat-field light. With a color rendering index of 92, the Artiste Van Gogh is designed for accurately displaying colors for vivid shades and textures that stand out. It is also designed to maintain an even distribution of light and an even color temperature across a surface for a smooth wash and consistent light quality on camera and in person.
A 16-bit CMY color-mixing system with a seamless CTO filter offers the designer a wide color range, a seven-position color wheel is provided for added color customization and includes a dedicated UV filter.
Van Gogh has an internal 4-blade, full blackout, barn door system that allows for beam shaping and accurate light control at any angle. The entire barn door assembly is indexable, allowing the beam to be shaped and angled as required for accurate highlighting of set pieces and performers. Designers can also use the flexible framing system to create outstanding projection or mid-air effects.
Beam angle can be resized from 7° to 55° (PC lens) and 11° to 66° (Fresnel lens) via a motorized zoom for more exact coverage. With a choice of PC or Fresnel lens (both included), the Van Gogh is flexible at any distance or field of projection from tight beams to wide, smooth washes for use in a variety of applications. A linear wash frost filter can be added at any time for an extra layer of smoothing.
