Ron Haselden

Ron Haselden (born 1944) is a British artist who splits his time between London and the French coastal town of Plouër-sur-Rance, in Brittany, France. He works with light, sound, film and video, often as part of architectural projects.

He was born in Gravesend, Kent and attended the Gravesend School of Art. After teaching for a number of years at Reading University he moved to France.

"Frère Jacques" (made in collaboration with Peter Cusack) combined a wall of light with children singing. [http://www.luxonline.org.uk/artists/ron_haselden/essay(4).html luxonline.org.uk] ] In 1993 he created a twenty feet high new moon illuminating the front of the South London Gallery. [ [http://www.southlondongallery.org/docs/exh/exhibition.jsp?id=94&view=past southlondongallery.org] ] "Blue Passage" (1999), made for the passageway between the South Bank and the BFI IMAX cinema in London, consists of 8000 blue LEDs sunk into the walls of the underpass.
