https://www.labirynt.slubice.eu/ CISZA | STILLE | SILENCE That is the theme of the lAbiRynT festival 16.-18.10.2026 in Frankfurt-Słubice In this year’s edition of the international art festival, we invite artists to reflect on the concept of ‘Silence’. We long searched for a slogan as powerful as “Time” in 2025. For a term that is universal and yet topical. In an age of social media, hate speech, political upheaval, and climate change, SILENCE can be interpreted as an invitation to pause, as a protest against emotional noise and hasty judgments. SILENCE as a pause, as a stop, as a state, as nothing, as the calm before the storm, as snow covering everything, as gazing at the stars, as mindfulness, as withdrawal, listening, and perceiving, as enduring ignorance… Silence is a space for things to happen. It is a breath between words, a pause between gestures, a moment of suspension. It can be uncomfortable, and sometimes louder than a scream. It is a state of mind in which the world slows down and the senses sharpen. It is also an ambiguous experience: it can soothe, but it can also disturb; it can be a choice or a compulsion; it can protect or exclude. Silence reveals what usually remains on the margins: a trace, a remnant, an echo. Artists are invited to send their proposals that address the theme of SILENCE in an open, personal, and critical manner. Exhibition proposals should be submitted to the festival curators by the 31st of March 2026.
