In detail
Over the course of three years (2023 to 2025), ART FLOW will focus on the entire 36-kilometer-long Limmat Valley. Between where the river flows out of Lake Zurich at Bellevue and where it joins the River Aare at Lauffohr, around 30 site-specific artworks will gradually be placed that deal with this cultural, economic and living space, which is exemplary for many current issues and developments. At the same time, a large-scale photographic field study will be carried out: «The Limmattal(ers)». The aim is to use art to promote a deeper awareness of the Limmat Valley and strengthen its identity.
The ART FLOW project provides low-threshold access to art and culture for all levels of society. By engaging with art and its multi-layered contexts, it raises awareness of regional living environments. A comprehensive and multifaceted educational program provides access to the themes and works. By actively engaging with the art objects, imagination and creativity are encouraged and discussions stimulated. The cultural education program is a profitable investment in the future of cultural participation.
