Im Blickpunkt (1984)
In 1984, the artist Ferdinand Kriwet developed this neon installation that plays with various terms. All the words and word inventions are associated with light, movement and art. In addition to LICHTSPIEL or MEDIENMUSEUM, there is also REIZEIT, a liaison of “stimulus” and “time”. This is the leitmotif of this year’s edition of GOLDSTÜCKE.
