Founded to bring art into the digital age, ZKM has set numerous focal points and themes over the years that have had an impact on society and/or do so today. Of particular importance for the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century is the technologization and digitalization, which has increased in speed and has been increasingly thematized, discussed, processed by artists with the aim of shaping our future.

Together with numerous guest artists and ZKM visitors, we continuously reflect on what is happening and, in the form of exhibitions and participatory events, develop ideas and approaches for a sustainable existence worth living.
