Background, venues and locations
The festival was founded by Strip Core, the comic art production section of Forum Ljubljana, and since its inception it explores the relation between the light and the public and the gallery space.
Throughout the years it has grown in size and scope, the events not only take place in Ljubljana but also in Kranj and Novo mesto, hosted in different art venues: Vžigalica Gallery, Tovarna Rog, SCCA-Ljubljana Centre for Contemporary Arts, Kino Šiška, and Slovene Ethnographic Museum.
The festival is known for its luminous exhibition objects presented with public interventions (by artists like Aleksandra Stratimirović, Bernard Murigneux, NatanEsku, Benedetto Bufalino, Sophie Guyot, and many others), which take place in several site-specific locations: the Ljubljanica bridges and quays, the French Revolution Square, Tivoli Park, streets and gardens etc.
