ZKM Magazine

With the »Sustainable Development Goals« adopted by the United Nations in 2015, museums and cultural institutions have been officially assigned global responsibility for sustainable development for the first time. In the magazine, the ZKM highlights the importance of culture promoting sustainability, questions the ecological side of digitalization or presents sustainability initiatives.

The attempt to transfer human learning and thinking to the computer – artificial intelligence – has captured society at the beginning of the 21st century. The development needs to be observed and questioned – artists are already experimenting in this field, often reflecting and opening our eyes. We present approaches and perspectives.

Current developments in art and society are shown at the ZKM in thematic and monographic exhibitions. The magazine collects retrospectives, field reports and provides insight into exhibitions of space-based arts such as painting, photography and sculpture as well as time-based arts such media art, music and performance.
