As 2023 is slowly coming to an end, we have prepared a recap of what we have prepared for you this year. Signal Festival is the main thing we focus on during the year. We have been expanding our program, organizing several events during the year, and taking our installations abroad.<\/p>\n

WE HAVE A NEW CURATOR<\/h3>\n

At the beginning of the year, Pavel Mrkus, an audio-visual artist and former dean of the Faculty of Art and Design at the UJEP, joined the program department as chief curator. Under his leadership, we launched the three-year curatorial concept Ecosystems with the subtitle explore!<\/strong> And what will follow? We will go on a quest, the subtitle of the next series will be quest<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

WE LIT UP THE KAMPA<\/h3>\n

We traditionally celebrated the Day of Light in cooperation with Eli Beamlines<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. This time we lit up Prague’s Kampa. Visual artist Jan Hladil<\/strong><\/span><\/a> presented a laser installation Omnia, which played a light symphony in the treetops.<\/p>\n

HELSINKI, LEIPZIG OR ZURICH<\/h3>\n

In most cases, the installation journey doesn’t just end at the Signal Festival. In January, we took Maxim Vel\u010dovsk\u00fd’s<\/strong> installation The Physical Possibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living<\/em><\/span><\/a> to the Lux Helsinki Light Festival. The proceeds from the festival went to where the installation came from, Ukraine.<\/p>\n

In October, the Leipzig Light Festival took place, where we lent our installation Trabi<\/em><\/span><\/a>, created for Signal Festival 2019 in collaboration with Signal Production & Post Bellum<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The popular installation Reflection<\/span><\/em><\/a> by Adam Cigler & Petr Vacek was created in 2019 as the winning work of the open call Signal Calling, which we organized in collaboration with the creative workshop PrusaLab<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. This year it traveled to Zurich, Switzerland.<\/p>\n

11TH SIGNAL FESTIVAL<\/h3>\n

The theme of this year’s festival was Ecosystems: explore!<\/strong> We explored new places, media, and ways of presenting contemporary art in public spaces. A total of 22 installations on 3 routes created by over 50 artists made you and us happy. We tried out a new route for Satellites<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, extending the festival beyond the main routes, introduced a full week of accompanying programming, and included several projects that continued after the festival.<\/p>\n

TROJA CH\u00c2TEAU COMES ALIVE WITH LIGHT INSTALLATIONS<\/h3>\n

In cooperation with the GHMP<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, we introduced the new St. Lucia project<\/a><\/strong><\/span> in December. Together we transformed Troja Castle into a baroque-digital festival of lights. We celebrated the feast of St. Lucia and presented 4 artworks by local and international artists over 2 days.<\/p>\n
