As with last year's festival, we'll be enriching the line-up of visual artists with thought-provoking international artists: Helen Blanken's HELIOTROPE installation from the Netherlands, for example, features moving blades inspired by plants turning towards the sun, Barcelona's MAREO will be lining the inside of the cooling towers with dazzling mysticism, and Slovakia's AUSGANG Studio evokes a higher form of evolution and makes us wonder about our not-too-distant future. But we will also be joined by Boris Acket, who blends many art forms and comes to Várpalota after major institutions and festivals such as the Venice Biennale, Dark Matter Berlin, Amsterdam Dance Event, Paris Fashion Week and MUTEK MX. With the support of Erste, we are also launching a light art competition, and the winning installation will be part of the INOTA Focus: RADIANCE programme.
The music line up will feature Alessandro Cortini, whose poignant melodies echoing into distant star systems are like lullabies sent through a cosmic filter. Cortini sets the tone and underpins the light artwork as the main musical leg of the INOTA Focus: RADIANCE event, alongside a line-up of progressive DJs such as Vel, Mac Declos, Aadja, Veracco + 30 great local acts representing a million micro shades of the electronic music underground to round off the long summer.
Sunday is again for the family: in addition to discounts for locals, the organisers will offer creative workshops and walks - and in the evening, the light installations will be waiting for them, too.
