The Solar Biennale
The Solar Biennale is a pioneering event that celebrates the transformative potential of solar energy through the interconnected worlds of design, art, technology, and innovation.
Co-founded by solar designers Marjan van Aubel and Pauline van Dongen, the biennale explores not only the practical applications of solar power but also its enduring inspirational qualities—historically and in the present day—as a source of energy, beauty, and creativity.
