Impressions of the Leipzig Festival of Lights 2011
Building bridges between Leipzig and Gdańsk
Traditionally, the Leipzig Festival of Lights art and civic project invites everyone to Augustusplatz on the 9ᵗʰ of October – and in 2011, for the first time, the event built a bridge across Europe: in Leipzig and Gdańsk, people came together to remember the events surrounding autumn ’89 and took an active part. Both cities explored topics such as freedom, solidarity and civic engagement.
