Description

On the occasion of his 75th birthday, the exhibition »respektive Peter Weibel« is showing for the first time an overview of the entire oeuvre of this internationally important media and concept artist.

Taking his twenty years’ work as chairperson of the ZKM as its starting point, the exhibition explores a selection of the vastly diverse themes developed under his aegis, such as the mechanisms of perception and thought, technical apparatus as a world in itself, the crisis of representation and the operating system of art, as well as the relationship between art, politics, and the economy.

    Peter Weibel's interactive video culture: A massive black cross. Where the struts of the cross meet is a monitor. On the monitor you can see the person standing in front of the cross, stretching out his arms as if he himself was hanging there.
