==Illuminations== [[File:York Minster Illuminations.jpg|thumb|The West Door, illuminated in December 2005]] In November 2002, York Minster was illuminated in colour, devised by York-born Mark Brayshaw, for the first time in its history. The occasion was televised live on the BBC1 ''[[BBC Look North|Look North]]'' programme. Similar illuminations have been projected over the Christmas period in subsequent years. York Minster was also artistically illuminated on 5 November 2005, celebrating the 400th anniversary of the foiling of York-born [[Guy Fawkes]]' gunpowder plot. This was done by [[Patrice Warrener]] using his unique "chromolithe" technique with which he 'paints' with light, picking out sculpted architectural details. In October 2010, York Minster's south transept was selected for "Rose", a ''son et lumiere'' created by international artists Ross Ashton and Karen Monid which lit up the entire exterior of the south transept of the minster and illuminated the Rose Window. There were also satellite illuminate events in [[Dean's Park]].
