Biennale Lighting Culture: Light + Sound, Light + Media, Light + E-Motion are the topics for Luminale 2012As in previous years, Luminale 2012 – Biennale of Lighting Culture – will be held concurrently with Light+Building, The World’s Leading Trade Fair for Architecture and Technology, in Frankfurt am Main and extend the fair into the evening and night from 15 to 20 April 2012. A bus line will link the various attractions throughout the city. Streets and squares, skyscrapers and churches, museums and galleries will be presented in a new light. Luminal curator Helmut Bien expects around 140,000 ‘genuine’ visitors (plus more than three million ‘contacts’ with commuters and passers-by): “Light+Building visitors and exhibitors from all over the world and people from the region enjoy the glamour of the illuminations, the hustle and bustle at the night-time venues and the new lighting ideas by architects, artists and designers. Regular guests have been calling for weeks now to ask when the programme will be published.” From 22 March 2012, it will be available as a download from www.luminale.de and, from April, in printed form in the various cultural institutes.. Lighting animates, changes the atmosphere, lightens the mood and emotions. Lighting installations reveal public rooms, which would otherwise have lived in the shadows. The fifth biennial event for lighting will be taking place in Frankfurt Rhine Main from 11 to 16 April, at the same time as the leading international fair Light+Building. Around 150 lighting events are in preparation. Artists, designers, performance and visual artists, VJ & DJs, architects and engineers have accepted the offer from Luminale to transform museums, galleries, industrial architecture, building sites, monuments, façades, squares and parks into an international lighting laboratory for the duration of the fair.
