Lets Celebrate Together, 20 Years of ZKM!

ZKM invites everyone to its twentieth birthday party. The opening of the major anniversary exhibition in the ZKM | Media Museum, two symposia, a 3D festival, and a large visitors’ festival form the framework for the ZKM birthday celebration. Awaiting you are light and music adventures, an overview of the most important ZKM productions with international guest artists, highlights in 3D developments in Karlsruhe, projections on the outer façade in the evening, and beginning at 10 p.m., a DJ party with The Allophons.
Along with the mega exhibition on three stories of the ZKM | Media Museum, the 42-hour festival also offers two scientific symposia on Friday and Saturday: on the preservation of media artworks—our audiovisual inheritance; and an exhibition on the latest 3D depictions in photography, film, and computer—all from Karlsruhe.
The visitors’ party on Sunday offers highlights, such as MobiSpray—light painting on the building, artworks, and people via cell phones. The evening program will be The Errorists. The festival ends with another façade illumination, a virtual fireworks display.
