Light + Sound, Light + Media, Light + E-Motion are the topics for Luminale 2010. Lighting animates, changes the atmosphere, lightens the mood and emotions. Lighting installations reveal public rooms, which would otherwise have lived in the shadows.

The fifth biennial event for lighting will be taking place in Frankfurt Rhine Main from 11 to 16 April, at the same time as the leading international fair Light+Building. Around 150 lighting events are in preparation. Artists, designers, performance and visual artists, VJ & DJs, architects and engineers have accepted the offer from Luminale to transform museums, galleries, industrial architecture, building sites, monuments, façades, squares and parks into an international lighting laboratory for the duration of the fair.
