2013 DW euromaxx highlights

Artist Erdal Inci
With the graphic file "GIF" its possible to make short animations using very little data so that any internet browser can play them. Thats why, 30 years after their creation, GIFs are popular again with artists like Erdal Inci from Turkey.


Olafur Eliasson - Riverbed
Icelandic-Danish artist Olafur Eliasson has turned the Louisiana museum in Denmark into one large installation with his latest exhibition which is called Riverbed.

Garden Festival in Lausanne
"Landing" is the motto of this year's "Lausanne Jardins" in Switzerland with around 40 stations.. Around every 5 years since 1997, landscape architects, gardeners, designers and artists have been commissioned to turn all of Lausanne into a green oasis.

A Latvian Resort
We visit Jürmala in Latvia. This spa resort has over 30 kilometers of sandy beaches and offers excellent water sports facilities.

Aquanario Water Show
We report on Europe's largest mobile water show. Getting the show ready for the audience is a mammoth undertaking that involves fifteen thousand metres of cables and eighty five litres of water.
