Come play video games at Bozar

Bozar Arcade is back! Come play our selection of 6 games.The new edition of our space dedicated to video games and interactive media arts focuses on the topic of love, in the frame of the exhibition Love is Louder.

This edition explores not only romantic love, kinship, and friendship but also societal bonds and how we connect to others in society. The arcade shows how video games are powerful tools for emotional engagement and storytelling. In the hands of artists and creatives, this interactive medium offers a possibility for deeper emotional connection with characters and immersive narratives.

Some of the games selected show how you can develop strong attachments to virtual characters, experiencing feelings like real-life romances. Others provide spaces for exploring romantic fantasies and emotional depth. And games like Queer Man Peering into a Rock Pool.jpg address a rather philosophical definition of romance and personal growth.
