Beacon Schiermonnikoog

This event has already taken place

Schiermonnikoog

Beacon Schiermonnikoog will connect Arcadia 2022 and the Hi-Lo 2023 art manifestation. Hi-Lo is a new art manifestation situated around the Wadden Sea.

From 1845 to 1910, the Noordertoren and Zuidertoren lighthouses marked the island of Schiermonnikoog with their lights. In 1910, when the Noordertoren was fitted with a revolving lamp capable of illuminating the entire area, the white Zuidertoren became redundant and its light was extinguished. This tower now serves as the canvas for an artform – light art – which resonates with the tower’s original purpose.

For an entire year, light projections will be displayed at sunset. A new light art piece every two months. The tower will once again become a beacon. The six artists selected to participate, are: Femke Schaap, Jan van Nuenen, Gilleam Trapenberg, Jacco Olivier, Daphne Glasmacher and Jos Agasi. On 1 July 2022, Femke Schaap will set the ball rolling.   

Beacon Schiermonnikoog will connect Arcadia 2022 and the Hi-Lo 2023 art manifestation. Hi-Lo is a new art manifestation situated around the Wadden Sea, commissioned by the Into The Great Wide Open festival on Vlieland. This first edition is a taster of all the amazing work to be seen in 2023.
