The Bassins des Lumières
Opened in 2020 in part of the city’s submarine base, it is the largest digital art center in the world. The site is composed of 4 water basins, projectors and enclosures allowing the projection of sound and light images. It is located in a former German submarine base from World War II. Inside the cells of the base, artists’ works are projected, in movement, to music, playing with the architecture of the place. Young and old alike will be enchanted by the movement of the works on the walls, on the floor, or on the water. The Bassins des Lumières, a unique place in Bordeaux.
