VARPALOTA , Sept 1 — A derelict power plant in Hungary came back to life yesterday, powered by music and light shows as thousands of festival-goers marvelled at its three huge cooling towers dominating the starry late summer sky.
The four-day Inota festival that launched yesterday has gathered dozens of artists, including Berlin-based pianist, composer and producer Nils Frahm, whose sonic alchemy of experimental textures and atmospheric electronica capture the site’s ambiance. The turbine hall, cooling towers and enormous heating room with its winding stairs and pipes have inspired visual artists from Hungary and abroad.
But the plant has stood idle since 2001. Hungarian visual artist Daniel Besnyo, who conceptualised the festival, hopes that will change now, with the musical and visual acts bringing new life to the place.
