Vienna Digital Cultures: The new Festival for Digital Art from May 2025!

Laimgrubengasse 10, 1060 Wien, Österreich - A new chapter in the Vienna Cultural Center begins! Photo Arsenal Vienna and the Kunsthalle Vienna have announced the first edition of the “Vienna Digital Cultures” festival, which is under the direction of Nadim Samman. This exciting festival, which takes place from May 5th to 18th, 2025 in the Kunsthalle Vienna Karlsplatz, follows the city's media art festival and will be organized together by both institutions every year. Samman, who previously worked as a curator for the digital area at the KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin, brings a lot of experience and creative vision into this project, which aims to research the effects of new technologies on art, such as ots.at reported.

The “Vienna Digital Cultures” festival will present innovative perspectives at the interface of art and media and contribute to the deepening of the synergies between photo Arsenal and Kunsthalle Vienna. Events are planned that prominently address developments in digital and physical media. This creates a varied program that stimulates both the audience and the cultural actors for dialogue about the future of art. The Kunsthalle Vienna has already published its event calendar and will offer numerous appointments during the festival period, as the Kunsthalle emphasized.
