Glow Eindhoven -> A must see

in art •  6 years ago  (edited)


Annual festival Glow did it again! They managed to create a gigantic optical illusion on a building where literally thousands of people stop and stare on what is going on.


One thing the city of Eindhoven, Holland has been known for for ages is their lighting skills. With the lighttower (an old Philips factory) as a center piece of this gigantic exposition, Jan Fabel, Dirk van Poppel and Erwin Steijlen have literally outdone themselves.


If you have a chance to visit Eindhoven this week, go for it. Yes it will be crowded, but on the other hand the amounts of people (700.000 in 2017) are there for a reason. Because it is totally worth it!

Right!! And more of these kinds of lightings all around the city this week. I can watch this stuff for hours hahahah

Wow, dat ziet er gaaf uit... Wij zijn een jaar of twee geleden in Amsterdam naar een soortgelijk festival geweest. Met een rondvaart door de grachten langs al die mooi verlichte grachtenpanden en kunstwerken op het water... echt gaaf..

@verhp Amsterdam Light Festival is this year from 29nov till 20jan and both light festivals are great. Won’t have time for Eindhoven this week...😢 but will for sure go to Amsterdam. @for91days this is the light festival we talked about during SF3

Thanks :) I think we will visit Amsterdam again during this time, it was indeed awesome !!!

Amsterdams is not so everything centrated in one area, but it is good that it is so many weeks there!

Ahhhhh, you and @for91days were already talking about this? It is really a work of art actually, and if you have the chance do go next year!

klopt amsterdam had ook een keer zo een evenement I remember. But actually Glow has been around quite a lot of years being more and more succesfull every year. I really would recommend you to check it out next year as it has just finished yesterday

Ja, Mooi is dat altijd he :-)
Ik heb er een video bij:

JAAAA nog meer videos idd, mijn is a clickable link. Ik vond het echt vet gemaakt!

Ah, ik had niet gezien dat het plaatje ook een video was.

I just read for the first time that you are a Dutch (knew that) ex-Caribbean girl...Now I'd be interested where the Caribbean comes from? Or where you lived or grew up whatever? Pleassssse! It was nice to meet you at Steemfest, even though it was only briefly. I was actually looking forward for dinner at the partly Dutch table, but then I was called out to go home and deal with my kids for the evening....ARGH. Next year, I will be dropping them with my sister lol. Are you from Eindhoven?

Yessss Im an Eindhovenian (is that a word :D) and lived on the island of Sint Martin the lst couple of years.

It was very good meeting you there, Tilburg is lingering in my mind..am I correct?

OMG! I lived on St. Martin too!!! But some time ago. And yes, Tilburg :)
