Electrohype 2006 is the fourth edition of the Electrohype biennial, this years exhibition will be presented in Lunds konsthall. The exhibition period is from December 9th 2006 to January 7th 2007, opening on Friday December 8th.

The exhibition Electrohype 2006 will present a number of rather quiet artworks ranging from complex installations to visual minimalism. Some artworks are running their own internal processes while other works are commenting in their style and expression. A common factor for all the works is that they are mirroring the influence of technology and new media in our view of esthetics and attitude toward the arts.
A major change for this edition of the biennial is that it will be presented in the city of Lund.
Electrohype has previously organized three biennials in Malmo, the last biennial was presented in Malmo Konsthall during the winter of 2004 – 2005.
During the same exhibition period as the biennial Electrohype will also present an exhibition with the topic electronic art in public space at the Museum of Sketches in Lund.

Electrohype 2006 is part of Lund´s aim to become European Capital of Culture 2014. The European Capital of Culture project is a strategy for developing all forms of arts and culture in Lund.

PUBLIC – ELECTRONIC! At the Museum of Sketches Exhibition period; December 9th 2006 to January 7th 2007. Opening Saturday December 9th.
Electrohype presents an exhibition about electronic art in public space. The exhibition presents documentation material, video, text, images and sound, of eight artworks, both realized installations and projects that are still on the drawing board.
New technology has become a integrated part of contemporary art. In the same manner electronic art has also moved out into the public space. Here the art is competing with advertisements to catch our attention, in a space where the media noise is constantly getting
higher.
The exhibitions aim is to show that creative work with new technology also can be used outdoors, in public space and not only in art galleries and exhibition halls.
The artworks are spans from gigantic light installations to artwork mirroring the underwater sound in one of the worlds most busy harbors.
