City turns lighting laboratory: Luminale 2012 organisers record more than 140,000 visitors at this year's event.

摘要

The biennial Luminale lighting festival has become a classic among Frankfurt's many large-scale public events. 2012 marked the sixth year that the lighting festival offered a cultural after-hours add-on to the Light+Building fair. Once again, world-renowned lighting designers, young artists and students turned the Rhein-Main region into an international arena for experimental light art and lighting design. The trend towards using buildings for large-scale projections and creating interactive installations continues. The first digitalised lighting projects were in evidence at Luminale years ago. Now they are part and parcel of the event.
