D’Kréiennascht
Héiergebées mat Kréieféiss
“D’Kréiennascht” is a young Luxembourgish art collective founded in 2019 and based in Pétange. Our main focus is the organization and exhibition of concerts and art events featuring local and international alternative visual artists, writers, performers and musicians.
Originating from years of friendship, a part of the collective's current members has been organising alternative concerts for over ten years. A few years ago, we decided to found a non-profit association and continue to execute our passion and - as for now - are especially known for our annual garden festival: “Feier-fest”. Due to the pandemic most events and also the festival had to be cancelled over the last two years.
For Radio Art Zone we aim to present our work as a Luxembourgish interdisciplinary art collective. This radio artwork consists of individual short radio plays by different members, as well as experimental sound art pieces created together as a collective. Ranging from “Sounding Research” to satirical “Weltschmerz”, surrealistic journeys and sonic documentaries.
