How can we remain capable of acting in the face of the pressing ecological and economic challenges of our time without losing courage?
How can we find answers together with the help of art and technology in order to contribute to a more inclusive form of social change? With the exhibition project “Fellow Travellers”, we want to create a multifaceted space at the ZKM in which artists, scientists, communities and citizens can learn from each other by interacting and creating together. As we are all “Fellow Travellers”, the exhibition is an invitation to all of you to find new ways to shape our planetary coexistence in and with the landscapes, laboratories and presentations by Zheng Guogu, Paulo Tavares, CATPC, Matters of Evidence, the BioDesignLab and the Asociación de Arte Útil.
We invite you to the opening of our new exhibition!
