Plug-in ArtTrack Picture Light by Situ

ArtTrack is Situ's answer for the canvases a single bar cannot reach: one to seven slender arms on a single slim track, each with its own small head, set along the top of a large painting or a long gallery wall.

It plugs in and runs from the included remote with dimming and timers. Choose the number of lights, a Standard set for landscape art under 42 in tall or a Tall set for portrait art up to 60 in tall, seven finishes including Black arms with Silver heads, and 3000K (Situ's recommendation) or warmer 2700K.

The Design Story

Situ designs to one rule, form follows function. Instead of one long bar, ArtTrack spaces individual 1 × 1¾ in heads along a mini track, so the light can be placed exactly where the composition needs it. Each arm reaches 12 to 14 in from the wall and each head pivots 180°, so very large or very tall pieces are lit evenly from top to bottom.

The track mounts to the wall or the artwork, or uses a mounting block, and slides for adjustment. Each light gives 325 lumens at 93+ CRI, and the LEDs are UV and infrared safe with virtually no heat on the canvas.

Finishes and SKUs

Each set has its own Situ model number, for example AT-3-S-B (3 lights, Standard, Brushed Brass, 3000K). -T- marks a Tall set, BlkS is Black arms with Silver heads, and 2700K models end in -27K. Our SKU adds the prefix LM-SITU, e.g. LM-SITU-AT-3-S-B.

About Situ Art Lighting

Situ Art Lighting started as a father-and-son team in Sarasota, Florida, and is led today by President Jordan Minges. Its design rule is short: form follows function. Every light is built in-house in Sarasota and backed by a 3-year limited warranty, from cordless rechargeable picture lights to plug-in, hardwired and track systems, each sized to the artwork rather than rated by raw lumens. LoftModern is an authorized Situ retailer.

Who This Is Not For

For a single framed piece up to about seven feet wide, one Plug-in Vision bar is simpler and quieter. For small works, the compact Plug-in Micro puts one tiny head above the frame. And if there is no outlet near the art, the cordless Rechargeable Vision needs no wiring.

Questions We Hear Most

Who makes ArtTrack?

Situ Art Lighting builds it in its own workshop in Sarasota, Florida. The company began as a father-and-son team and still designs, assembles and supports its lights in-house.

How many lights do I need?

Measure the artwork. For landscape art under 42 in tall, Situ recommends 1 light up to 32 in wide, 2 up to 48 in, 3 up to 72 in, 4 up to 96 in and 5 up to 120 in. For portrait art up to 60 in tall, allow one Tall light for every 12 in of width, up to 7 lights for 84 in.

Standard or Tall?

Measure the artwork height. Under 42 in tall (landscape), the Standard set spreads light across a wider canvas. Taller than that, up to 60 in (portrait), the Tall set aims farther down the piece.

Do I need an electrician?

No. ArtTrack plugs into a standard outlet and mounts on a mini track or mounting block on the wall or the artwork.

3000K or 2700K?

Situ recommends 3000K, a clean warm white that suits most art. 2700K is warmer and flatters oils and gilded frames.
