Videocittà Returns to Rome

On July 3 – 4 – 5 – 6, the eighth edition of the Festival of Vision and Digital Culture will take place.

With an extra day of programming compared to previous editions, the largest industrial archaeology area in Europe, the Gazometro in Rome, once again becomes a hub of cultural innovation and is preparing to host four days of majestic installations, video art, video mapping, immersive experiences, audiovisual music shows, talks, and AV experiences, already looking towards the languages of tomorrow.

Videocittà is an open observatory that promotes excellence in audiovisual and digital communication, giving visibility to the most advanced forms of production and creativity. Since 2018, the festival has expanded its international reach, welcoming over 550 artists, including Oscar winners and Golden and Silver Lion winners at the Venice Biennale. Videocittà is also a laboratory for emerging talents, many of whom, starting from Italian premieres, have achieved international fame. The 2025 edition celebrates the 800th anniversary of the Canticle of the Creatures by Saint Francis and focuses on the Sun as a symbol of life, light, and energy. This theme is reflected in the work of the participating artists who explore the relationship between sustainability, the environment, and digital innovation.

For the opening on Thursday, July 3, the Italian premiere of Onirica () live by fuse*, who return to the festival after the site-specific installation luna somnium in 2022, will be staged. On this occasion, they present a performance that explores the perception of the body in the realm of dreams, generated in real-time through the interaction between performer and artificial intelligence.
