We wanted to celebrate this important milestone in a truly unique way,\u201d says Beata Konieczniak, Artistic Director of Light.Move.Festival.<\/p>\n \u201cThis year\u2019s programme features the 2D\/3D mapping shows, large-scale projections and animations that festivalgoers love,\u201d adds Beata Konieczniak. Audiences can look forward to 11 projections, including 6 mapping shows!<\/strong> Artists from around the world showcase the beauty of \u0141\u00f3d\u017a\u2019s architecture at locations including 113 Piotrkowska Street, 99 Piotrkowska Street, 60\u201362 Piotrkowska Street and 50 Piotrkowska Street.<\/p>\n The festival\u2019s most popular locations are also part of the programme. A 3D mapping show illuminates the fa\u00e7ade of the church at Ko\u015bcielny Square, while Freedom Square (Plac Wolno\u015bci) is transformed by a breathtaking 360-degree projection illuminating 12 buildings surrounding the square and 5 tenement houses on neighbouring Piotrkowska Street.<\/p>\n Light has also brought stories to life on the fa\u00e7ades of the Pozna\u0144ski Family Palace, one of \u0141\u00f3d\u017a\u2019s architectural gems. Festivalgoers can enjoy two spectacular mapping shows<\/strong> at this location.<\/p>\n The first, created by French artist Vali Cincisan and projected onto the palace fa\u00e7ade from the Ogrodowa Street side, combines the aesthetics of digital painting, animated transitions and immersive visual storytelling. Created specifically for the Pozna\u0144ski Palace, the work offers a contemplative experience exploring perception, identity and the enduring power of memory.<\/p>\n The second show, Journey of Dreams<\/em> (Podr\u00f3\u017c marze\u0144<\/em>), created by MRK6 Studio and projected from the palace garden side, is a colourful, imaginative journey to distant corners of the world. Light transports viewers across borders and continents, revealing extraordinary landscapes, symbols and cultures that take on a completely new dimension after dark.<\/p>\n For the second time in the festival\u2019s history, a mapping show is accompanied by live music. Grand Prix of Dreams<\/em> features a musical score performed live by composer Pawe\u0142 Steczek and guest musicians.<\/p>\n This year\u2019s festival also features an extraordinary collection of artistic light installations throughout the city. In parks, passages and squares, visitors can discover 16 installations<\/strong>. The number sixteen is the guiding theme of this year\u2019s edition.<\/p>\n Three-dimensional sculptures are spread along Piotrkowska Street, throughout Manufaktura and in the city\u2019s parks. Highlights include the monumental 31-metre-long installation A Bird Passing By<\/em>, featuring 64 sculptures of birds in flight; Karolina Howorko\u2019s 4.5-metre-high Chairs of Loneliness<\/em>; and the kinetic installation H\u00e9liotrope<\/em> at Manufaktura, which unfolds through a six-minute cycle of light and sound.<\/p>\n Our youngest visitors are invited to explore the magical LMF Kids zone. With installations, projections and workshops designed especially for children, the zone features seven locations<\/strong> across the festival map. There are also plenty of creative activities, including workshops, animations and opportunities to create collaborative artworks with festival animators.<\/p>\n Light.Move.Festival. is also a celebration of music, with numerous musical stops throughout the city. Festivalgoers can enjoy nine diverse stages<\/strong>, featuring a unique line-up that spans alternative music, jazz, pop, electronic sounds and performances by orchestras.<\/p>\n Join us in \u0141\u00f3d\u017a!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The 16th Light.Move.Festival.
