Description
Under the open sky in the courtyard of the Zurich State Museum, you'll experience artistic projections on the facades. Electronically newly produced music gives familiar themes minimalist and contemporary depth.
The show impressively combines classical music, emotion, and technology. It invites you to briefly dream with open eyes.
The artist collective Projektil interprets Wagner's Ring of the Nibelung as a modern light spectacle. The visuals, sounds, and illusions create an intense experience between opera and digital art.

Swiss Activity Tip
In the public areas of the courtyard, there are several ways to spend time before or after the light show. You can grab a bite at the Food Corner, where various stalls around the fireballs offer hot meals, sweet snacks, and hot drinks.

Mediocre and boring... Such a shame, the place could be beautiful.
