The UNESCO Creative City of Media Arts Karlsruhe is exhibiting media art in the public space once again this year. Under the title Media art is here, public squares, façades and shop windows will be transformed into a digital stage from August 15 to September 15, 2024, presenting installations, videos and performances as well as interdisciplinary projects. Media art is here takes place every summer parallel to the SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE Light Festival.
The exhibition covers a broad spectrum of themes and artistic approaches that illuminate the diverse potential of media art and its social significance. A significant aspect of Media art is here is also its accessibility. The exhibition is free of charge and open to all, providing a broad platform for the exchange and participation of contemporary media art. The City of Karlsruhe’s annual Project Funding Program for Media Art plays a central role by enabling artists to realise their creative visions and present them to the public. In this way, Media art is here contributes to cultural diversity and strengthens the inclusive character of the city of Karlsruhe as a UNESCO Creative City of Media Arts.
In 2024, the SCHLOSSLICHTSPIELE Karlsruhe will enter its 10th edition. Under the title Everybody counts, they will focus in particular on the topics of law, freedom and democracy, as the German Basic Law turns 75.
