IG Nacht

Unter dem Titel IG Nacht machten die Dialogfelder 2018 die Nacht in Chemnitz lebenswerter, indem sie den Boden für neue Sichtweisen und spielerische Umgänge mit dem Thema Nacht in der Großstadt bereiteten. Das Zentrum der IG Nacht, der südliche Sonnenberg, wurde in ein künstlerisch-kreatives Frühbeet für Nachtschattengewächse verwandelt, dessen Ausstrahlung weit in die Stadt hinein zu spüren war.


Über 5 Monate lang wurden insgesamt über 10 Künstler*innen, Designer*innen, Performer*innen, Musiker*innen, Wissenschaftler*innen und Kreative aus ganz Europa für je 4 Wochen nach Chemnitz eingeladen, um insgesamt fünf Dialogfelder zu gestalten. An dieser Stelle können Sie die Nacht rekapitulieren, die involvierten Künstler:innen kennenlernen und die Ergebnisse nacherleben.

  • NENAD POPOV ​

    Nenad Popov is an interdisciplinary artist whose work is inspired by scientific concepts and methods.  He specialises in live performances and cinematic installations, many of which involve living organisms. He received his Master's degree from the Faculty of Arts Science at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague, Netherlands. He has lived and worked in Berlin since 2013. He has shown his work at festivals such as Ars Electronica in Linz and STATE - Experience Science in Berlin.

  • Das Gras ist auf der anderen Seite immer Grüner

    During the residency, the artist developed simple mechanical devices that enable us to hear our environment in a non-human way. Similar to the numerous hearing organs in insect bodies, the audience will grow long antennae, their ears will be stretched dozens of metres, bodies will merge into swarms and thus plants and concrete will become audible. The event itself is organised as a soundwalk: The artist guides the audience through areas of the Sonnenberg that are interesting in terms of sound, with the sequence of locations forming a composition.
