Amsterdam Light Festival
Amsterdam Light Festival is an annual light art festival in Amsterdam. Artists, architects and (light) designers from all over the world bring their light artworks and installations alive during the festival every winter. The artworks are placed alongside two routes. Each route has their own theme, set of artworks and visitor experience. Water Colors, the boat rout, displays big monumental objects and offers visitors the chance to experience the art from a water perspective. Illuminade, the walking route, shows interactive and innovative installations from upcoming designers in the Plantage neighborhood.
Celebrate winter, with art, light and water!

Danger Zone. Love is contagious. Pericolo. L’amore è contagioso. Zona peligrosa. El amore es contagioso. Zone dangereuse. L’amour est contagieux. Gefahrenzone. Die Liebe ist ansteckend.
Italian artists Luigi Console and Valentina Novembre warn you for the contagiousness of love. Together is a subtle ambiguous comment on the contemporary status of love, as Amsterdam Light Festival jury member Tim Molloy states. Because what does love mean in times of individuality, loose connections, polarization and self-interest?
Console and Novembre make their statement about love in various languages, referring to the international character of Amsterdam. Both residents and visitors contribute to the city in their own way, all in their own language, creating a melting of mixed identities. Every word might have a different connotation in a different language, making this artwork open for various interpretations by people from different cultures.
Luigi Console and Valentina Novembre are both from the south of Italy. Console his work varies with different kinds of media, from screen-printing to creative coding and from offline media to digital media. Console focuses on the connections between visual communication techniques such as poster design and video mapping performance. Novembre has finished a master in Relational Design. She specializes in the application of relation dynamics in communication through speech and story telling. She produces design activities that combine digital media with community activities and innovation projects.
