Valentin Spiess

Valentin Spiess, founder and CEO of iart ag, trained as an electrical engineer and has worked in New Media since 1993. His earliest forays into the medium were collaborations with artists, realising their media installations, and innovating engineering solutions, where the tech did not exist. Recognising the engineering and innovation gap existing in New Media, he founded iart in 2001—an office dedicated to the development and realisation of media projects. Since then, the small interdisciplinary team has grown to a force of over 50, specialised in every stage of conception, planning, and execution of media interventions. As a studio for media architectures, iart enhances physical spaces with digital technology—generating novel experiences. To date, iart has collaborated with internationally renowned architects, artists, brands, and museums, garnering numerous design awards around the globe.
