Voices @ ZKM
In our »Polyphony!« campaign we will let many different voices have their say, which already make the ZKM an open and polyphonic place. We invite you to meet international artists, ZKM staff and visitors in and from Karlsruhe over the coming months – and to leave your own traces!
Most of the visuals were created by our ZKM AI based on the statements of our guests.

It offers so many more possibilities than traditional contemporary art. And it also combines my background in biology. I originally trained as a scientist in cell and molecular biology. And so I was able to make this beautiful fusion between contemporary art and science. That is very satisfying.



Alistair Hudson | The Interlocal
And this is how we have to imagine working in Karlsruhe that ZKM has to speak to the city of Karlsruhe and engage with it and join in with what that city is doing. But also act as a portal to the wider world that's multi-directional, that allows those local stories to connect with questions of a similar nature, but a different nature in South America or Asia or Africa or elsewhere. / Alistair Hudson



Rethinking the World Together
Evolution instead of reinvention. After more than 24 years, the scientific-artistic direction of the ZKM changes.
