The Festival of Lights is one of the largest illumination festivals in
the world. Every year for twelve days in October, Berlin’s
world-famous landmarks and monuments are dressed in spectacular light.

extraordinary illuminations, light art and creative designs. The
festival is accompanied by numerous cultural events, all exploring the
theme “Light”. The festival is an admission-free, top artistic event
for an audience of millions. It generates massive media interest
worldwide, and as a result, promises real sustainability.

Time guards by Manfred Kielnhofer
The constant struggle with concepts of space, sculptures and
installations as well as the engagement of mysticism and primal
religions led the Austrian artist to create “timeguards“. The first
timeguard was built in 2007 and is reminiscent of a withdrawn monk.
Kielnhofer likes to present his sculptures at exciting locations. They
appear and disappear. You can never anticipate where they will show up
next time, reminding us that we are never unobserved. Every one of our
actions is seen by the guards and evaluated. They were already in
existence a long time before humans populated the earth.
