ibug

After a successful festival in 2021, The Industriebrachenumgestaltung – ibug for short – took place in Flöha for the second time this summer. More than 10,000 curious people and art lovers visited the 17th edition of the festival for urban art in the former coloured paper factory on Augustusburger Straße over two weekends – from August 26 to 28 and from September 2 to 4. Around 70 artists came from all over Europe, but also from Brazil, Puerto Rico and the USA, and for this year’s ibug they once again brought the 5,000 square meter wasteland to life. With graffiti, paintings and illustrations, installations, sculptures and multimedia projects, they transformed it into a total work of art. On the two festival weekends, there also was a colourful supporting program with guided tours, films, artist talks, an art market and music.
