Ryoji Ikeda. micro | macro

As prelude to the exhibition »Infosphere«, the ZKM | Karlsruhe is presenting the large-scale exhibition »micro | macro« by Japanese artist and composer Ryoji Ikeda. The series of works entitled »supersymmetry« and the installation commission by ZKM entitled »the planck universe« will be presented for the first time as a world premiere in the ZKM_Atrium 1 + 2 on an exhibition area of about 7,000 m². Both works were created during Ikeda’s research stay at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). The installations are synchronized with each other and transform the exhibition into a large audiovisual symphony. The rooms in the ZKM will be part of a monumental »super installation«.

Please note: STROBE EFFECTS ON VIDEO AND HIGH SOUND LEVEL which could possibly trigger epileptic seizures will be used in the exhibition.
