The 6th Swiss Triennial Festival of Sculpture, called Bad RagARTz, will be held between May and November, 2015. About 400 sculptures by artists from different countries will be on public display during this time at the wellness resort of Bad Ragaz and in Vaduz, in Switzerland, making it one of Europe’s largest outdoor shows. There is no entry fee. On the opening day, May 12, a large artist festival will be held at the Bad Ragaz baths plaza. According to the organisers, “the special feelings one has when strolling through a landscape transformed by art are part of the secret of success behind Bad RagARTz.” Besides, one can also enjoy the passing of the seasons, from summer to autumn, and enjoy how the change in colour and light leaves an impact on the sculptures. The central theme this year is Art in Blue. Details on www.badragartz.ch/en-us/triennalfestival/triennalfestival2015.aspx
