We hope to see you again this fall, to enjoy art together, during Media Art Festival and Leeuwarden Urban Night Adventure – LUNA.
In the past few months, we were able to initiate a number of smaller (online) projects. You can find these in an overview below.
Stay healthy!
Kind regards,
Team MAF-LUNA 2021
YOUNG MASTERS 20/21
The new Young Masters 20/21 have been selected. Check out the selection here.
SPRING!
Between March 12 and 28, 2021, poetic light art by Anne Fie Salverda could be seen on the windows of the Doopsgezinde Kerk in Balk. Each evening as it began to get dark, until curfew, the windows inside lighted up and dragged the viewer into stories of movement and light. Spring! was conceived and produced by Media Art Friesland at the request of Podium Gorter, the foundation that organizes cultural activities in the church. Read more here.
THEME NIGHTS
On December 1, 2 and 3, 2020, the Media Art Festival in collaboration with the RUG Campus Fryslân and the Hanzehogeschool Groningen presented three intertwined online Theme Nights, full of discovery, discussion and artistic inspiration. Central to each evening was a theme that was further explored and unraveled by our special guest researchers and artists. Did you miss the livestreams? Then watch them back now on this page.
TUBELIGHTS
As part of the theme program ‘Here and Now’ of Media Art Friesland, the art installation Tubelights was on display in the glass entrance of Tresoar in November 2020. An interactive work of art by the Groningen artist and designer Lambert Kamps in which the audience could participate by sharing words. Read more here.
ARTIST IN SPACE
Artist Jildau Nijboer completed a working week in Obe, Leeuwarden, during which she invited an online audience to contribute images to the artwork she is developing for LUNA 2021 in the context of Artist in Space.
11 OTHER PLACES
LUNA Collective, in collaboration with Lichtendonker and Merk Fryslân and commissioned by the province of Fryslân, provided a cultural experience and a light at the end of the tunnel in December 2020. During eleven evenings, attention was drawn to special and unknown places throughout Fryslân. Take a look at all the projects on this page.
