HOPE: the touch of many

During the five days of the festival, the theme exhibition inhabits the architecture of the POSTCITY’s bunker and unfolds as a shared space and a contact zone. It is a tapestry of conceptual, sensual and emotional journeys through and within artistic inquiries and research domains. It is also an interface that reveals the collaborative and empowering endeavours of Ars Electronica, its multiple partnerships and commitments. The extensive journey through the concrete underground maze is divided into five parts. A prologue in the festival’s opening area is followed by an underground descent unfolding across three chapters that follow the twists and turns of the bunker’s architecture. The journey concludes with an epilogue before resurfacing from the depths of POSTCITY.
