Animals of the Mind
LUGA Art Trail: Animals of the Mind, an open-air exhibition of site-specific contemporary artworks, unfolds across Luxembourg’s green spaces as part of Luxembourg Urban Garden (LUGA) from May to October 2025. Through sculptures, video works, performances and installations, the artists explore how animals are largely invisible in our urban environments — yet how do we explain the growing presence of animal motifs in everyday life, if not as a reflection of our deepening alienation from nature?With Atelier Van Lieshout, Roland Boden, Anne-Charlotte Finel, Henrik Håkansson, Cengiz Hartlap & Sara Lefebvre, Anna Hulačová, Laurent Le Deunff, Rémy Markowitsch, Mary-Audrey Ramirez, Su-Mei Tse, Studio Ossidiana, Ulrich Vogl
