Kunstkraftwerk Leipzig, Arts centre in Altwest district, Leipzig, Germany

Kunstkraftwerk Leipzig occupies a converted heat and power station, transforming its expansive industrial halls into gallery spaces for multimedia installations. The venue displays contemporary digital projects within monumental industrial architecture.

The power station once supplied heat and electricity to the city before closing, then was repurposed by local residents into an arts venue. This transformation reflects how industrial sites can gain new purpose as cultural spaces.

The center displays digital art created through collaborations with artists from multiple countries on multimedia projects. Visitors encounter installations that merge technology with artistic vision.

The venue is open on select weekdays, so visitors should plan accordingly since hours vary. Checking the website beforehand helps confirm which exhibitions are running and if special events are scheduled.

The center creates traveling exhibitions shown across multiple venues that blend digital art with handcrafted techniques. This approach extends the reach of the art far beyond the building itself.
