Wonderful expedition
Playing is written in our genes, we do it from childhood. Drawing on the sidewalk, playing marbles on the square or hide and seek in the neighborhood: playfully we discover new possibilities and learn to know our surroundings. By experimenting freely engineers, designers, scientists and artists achieve innovative concepts, techniques and knowledge. Mindlessly messing around can lead to the most beautiful discoveries.
Artists are working on the research and development of our society. The artworks and installations carry us along on a wonderful expedition and place the world in a new light. The works shift our attention, surprise and challenge. During GLOW we let our imagination do the talking and look with curiousity around us, to others and to ourselves. We are pawns in a big game. The city is the game board. The artist takes the dice.
GLOW NEXT
In addition to the art route through the city a collection of innovative and experimental light art will be presented under the name GLOW NEXT at Strijp-S near the city center. Strijp-S, site of the old physics laboratory of Philips, iscurrently undergoing a transformation and grows into the creative heart of Eindhoven. This place provides an excellent playground for GLOW NEXT, where scientists, artists and industrialists inspire, interact and benefit from mutual expertise and experience in lighting technology and light and art. Thus GLOW NEXT can evolve into a leading and pioneering international lighting lab.
