ZSOLNAY LIGHT ART VIDEO MAPPING COMPETITION 2026
2-5. July 2026.
The Cathedral Façade as the Festival’s Largest Canvas
The festival’s most anticipated event, the Zsolnay Light Art Video Mapping Competition, is going to transform the façade of the Pécs Cathedral into a monumental light canvas every evening. This year, artists from Italy, China, and Bulgaria compete for the audience’s votes, with works deeply inspired by the visual language of Vasarely’s Op Art legacy. Alongside the competition, a special premiere will also take place: as part of the Irish focus programme, the renown Hungarian light-art team, Glowing Bulbs will present a homage projection dedicated to the legacy of Ferenc Martyn.
HOST + PROFESSIONAL PARTNER:
The collaborating professional partner of Zsolnay Light Art and the host of the competition is the group of Hungarian visual artists, Glowing Bulbs, boasting a history of more than 25 years.
