Panasonic laser projection raises the curtain at the Swedish theater in Örebro

Four Panasonic projectors are responsible for the mapping show on the façade of this emblematic theater, to make visual art accessible to citizens and visitors.

built in 1852, he Örebro County Theatre It was the largest theater in Sweden, although a gas lighting accident completely destroyed the building in 1882, and it took seven years to rebuild it.

At the moment, Örebro Provincial Theater celebrates the building's history and contribution to the arts with projection mapping on the façade, that surrounds the renovated building with light. For the third consecutive year, This has been the setting for a projection designed as a way to create visual art accessible to everyone.

For this, those responsible for the theater worked in collaboration with the Hungarian group Limelight Projection Mapping, creators of unique and world-renowned artistic facade video mapping shows.

For three nights and with fourteen performances, Performing arts: a show on the walls! has served as an open meeting point in the square in front of the theater. Inspired by the belief that people coming together is a prerequisite for change, the theater presents a unique and creative work in which opposite poles attract and interact through art.

In order to offer an impressive visual spectacle, the specialist Univentum, in collaboration with the theater team, specifically requested two projectors Panasonic PT-DZ21K, of 20.000 lumens, which were stacked in pairs to create the mapping in the central section of the building.

Two PT-RZ970 models were used to map the two smaller side sections of the building., with a laser projection 10.000 lumens, which offered total façade lighting of 62.000 lumens. The brightness intensity was almost the same, with a total of 62.000 lumens, despite the difference in lumens of the projectors and everything worked well.

Five minutes long, The mapping content combines futuristic line art with nods to numerous famous works. “We know that with Panasonic audiovisual technology we will obtain total reliability. This security is especially reassuring when we organize large events. For mapping artists, This gives them complete freedom and to concentrate on pure creation.. The final result speaks for itself”, subraya Per-Arne Gerdin, Univentum project manager.
