Description
Timm Ulrichs is one of the best-known action and conceptual artists of the present day. With more than 150 works, he holds an important place in the collection of the ZKM | Karlsruhe. Objects, sculptures, photographs, graphics, and film sequences invite visitors to embark on a voyage of discovery into the world of thought of the self-proclaimed "total artist". In conversation with Sarah Donata Schneider, he talks about the power of words, the artist ego, and the value of the idea.
"The Art of Me, Myself and I" is an event in the online conversation series "The Art of...", which is dedicated to artists and theorists with reference to the collection and archives of the ZKM.
