A highlight of the event will be the Artist Dialogue Day on August 24, inviting visitors to engage with artists and discuss their work.
Several workshops are planned for the last weekend of August, including image staging, chemigram, lumigraphy, and photo book workshops. The opening weekend will feature a presentation of the "Jury Prize" and a festive atmosphere.
Works by renowned artists such as Tobias Kruse, Gosbert Gottmann, and Maartje Martis, among others, will be presented at the Bellevue Hall of the Kunstverein. Many participating artists have confirmed their presence at the opening.
