Centre for International Light Art

Centre for International Light Art, Art gallery in Unna, Germany

The Centre for International Light Art displays installations and exhibitions in a former industrial building where light serves as the primary artistic medium. The space preserves the structure of its original industrial use and creates a contrast between the raw building and contemporary light art.

Founded in 2014, it became the first museum worldwide dedicated exclusively to presenting and preserving light art. It established an entirely new focus within the international art museum sector.

International artists present rotating exhibitions that explore how light, space, and perception connect, allowing visitors to experience the artistic installations directly.

The building offers limited wheelchair access with some areas requiring assistance. It is advisable to contact staff beforehand to clarify specific access needs.

Each exhibition space transforms through different light installations where shadows and illumination form the artistic experience itself. Visitors discover entirely different visual worlds on each visit through the constantly changing installations.
