FESTIVALS
SOPHIA ODER DAS ENDE DER HUMANISTEN
Few topics captivate as much as artificial intelligence. Long since breaking free from the confines of scientific research, it has become-sometimes more, sometimes less obviously-a part of everyday life, and its potential is impossible to predict.
INTERNATIONAL
DÖRTE EISSFELDT ꟾ Archipelago
In the images of Dörte Eißfeldt (born 1950), nothing is as it seems, and nothing stays the same. Instead of merely depicting reality, she transforms photography into a medium of constant metamorphosis.
FESTIVALS
SHEUNG YIU ꟾ (Inter)faces of Predictions
In his winning project, Sheung Yiu (b. 1991) investigates how faces across different cultures and technological contexts serve to prefigure character traits and foretell the future.
FESTIVALS
“No More Masterpieces”
“No More Masterpieces” (a battle cry from the well-known Surrealist Antonin Artaud) dedicates itself to the action-oriented side of Surrealism and its impact that is still felt today.
