How are technologies changing the way we view nature — and what does “natural” mean in the digital age? The exhibition will be on display at the Städtische Galerie KUBUS from October 10 to November 22.
Artists from Germany, the United States, and other countries explore the interrelationships between nature and technology, humans and machines, and reality and virtual reality.
On display are international contemporary media artworks, installations, performances, and documentary formats. The exhibition is complemented by an accompanying program featuring workshops, artist talks, and panel discussions.
