Façade Festival

A project by the Burrard Arts Foundation, Vancouver Art Gallery, Vancouver Canada, 2019

Façade Festival 2019 was a free, outdoor public art and cultural event presented by Burrard Arts Foundation, in partnership with the Vancouver Art Gallery. The festival featured commissioned works by established and emerging contemporary artists, and took place from sunset to midnight nightly from September 8th to 14th, 2019. 

Every evening during the festival, bold artworks were projected over the Vancouver Art Gallery’s Georgia Street façade, covering the building with dynamic, site specific art. This immersive art installation utilized the innovative format of projection mapping to create a highly engaging, spatial experience for the public. It also provided an opportunity for the community to gather and enjoy art in a communal, accessible format reminiscent of an outdoor movie screening.
