SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE 2021

The SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE let the Karlsruhe Palace illuminate with breathtaking projections.

After their departure into virtual space with the digital edition 2020, the SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE Karlsruhe 2021 will return to the baroque facade of Karlsruhe Palace from August 18 to October 3. In addition to the three digital shows »Matter Matters« by Maxin10sity, »Attitude Indicator« by TNL as well as »Changes³« by ruestungsschmie.de from last year, there will be another new show to see. The visitors can also look forward to the winning production of the BBBank Newcomer Award »Karlskompensator« by Genelabo / Crushed Eyes Media.

"We are very happy to return to the city and the palace with the SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE" says Prof. Peter Weibel, curator of the SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE and artistic-scientific director of the ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe. "The digital, however, will remain with us; furthermore, we want to reach people worldwide with the artistic works of the SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE from the UNESCO City of Media Arts to reach people worldwide."

The Light Festival Karlsruhe takes place parallel to the SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE: The city becomes a stage and exhibition space, visitors can experience light art and illuminations at decentralized stations.
