A photo exhibition about the previous Lausitz Festivals? Yes, exactly. Because a look back is also a look forward.

Our first warm-up to the actual festival has begun: With the photo exhibition "Eye-catching - Snapshots at the Lausitz Festival" we show highlights from the young European art festival. More than 50 photographs by 11 artists are on display.

Festival director Daniel Kühnel on the idea behind the exhibition: "We're not just showing that it was great, we're remembering everything we experienced, thought, perhaps even understood and learnt, which cannot be better expressed than in and with art. Lusatia is full of art."
