Over the last months a striking new version of the Ars Electronica Center has been taking shape on the north bank of the Danube. The Museum of the Future has added 4500 m˛ of floor space to its existing exhibition area.
With its opening programme the Ars Electronica Center takes up its stand centre stage with the effortless bravura of a superstar. In tours designed to be appetizers it gives its visitors a first glimpse of its new versatility and potential. At 11am on 2nd January the museum reopens its gates for the first time since its makeover and from 2pm it welcomes visitors to an “Open House” tour free of charge. Guided tours will include “New Pictures of Humanity” and “Poetry of Motion”. In store for those attending the two-day opening programme there are artistic takes on such topics as chance and the depths of the universe. There will also be a “Robot Fashion Show” and a spectacular display on the building’s external LED skin.www.aec.at
