Founded in 1989, the ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe stands worldwide for an open concept of art in the digital age. At the ZKM, scientific collection and archive research is intertwined with artistic research on the electronic arts. Through these interdisciplinary connections, we at the ZKM present and produce the evolution of art and media of the 20^th and 21^st centuries.

Whether exhibitions, symposia, publications, concert programs or digital formats, the ZKM is the platform for the discourse of art and technology with society, science, business and politics in order to examine and better understand the effects of our media and digital world on us humans.
