What are mcbw actions in public spaces?

They comprise a variety of formats, that are planned and realised every year for mcbw. Each event refers to the current annual theme and illuminates it from its very own perspective.

TAKE A SEAT by Sintesi Labs

For mcbw 2025, Munich-based agency Sintesi Labs designed the mcbw public space on the south lawn of the Alte Pinakothek – creating a real eye-catcher. Their installation TAKE A SEAT, a seemingly endless picnic table, invited visitors to linger, chat and get to know each other. In the evenings especially the large, illuminated lettering with changing messages attracted curious visitors.

Texts and little games on the tabletops provided topics of conversation – perfect for striking up a chat or simply having fun together. The highlight? The table lighting only came on when at least two people sat opposite each other. A lovely, playful detail that created connections almost incidentally – just like the entire installation.

After mcbw, the tables found a new home in the new FLUX Space – here they continue to invite visitors to linger.
