Sound lights illuminate Graz: a dream in colors and sounds

A spectacular event begins today in Graz that will transform the city center into a colorful dream for three evenings.

Artists from the region as well as internationally active creatives express their visions and ideas for depicting dream worlds. These works of art promise an experience that will be both gentle and subtle as well as powerful and impressive.
