ZSOLNAY LIGHT ART COMPETITION
One of the key objectives of the Zsolnay Festival of Light is to present the works of art within the confines of Hungary's first light festival.In 2016 the Zsolnay Festival of Light first invites for the international money-prize Zsolnay Light Art Mapping Competition on the facade of the Cathedral of Pécs.
The competition is the central attraction of Zsolnay Festival of Light, and the works will be displayed for two nights on July 1 and 2. on the facade.
In previous years, the city of Pécs has already welcomed mapping artists on many occasion, but this year, in addition to the main facade of the basilica, for the first time ever the towers will be projected on as well, thus creating a unique and monumental sight.
The organisers of the Zsolnay Festival of Light commisioned the internationally renowned Hungarian artist group, Glowing Bulbs to be their professional partner, not only to host and manage the tournament, but also to compose their own mapping for the occasion.
The competition is to be held in one division, however, in addition to the prize granted by the jury, other special awards are expected, and the mapping work voted to be the best by the audience is also going to be rewarded.
Zsolnay Light Art Mapping Competition can be visited free of charge and is recommended for any age groups.
