Info
“Steina: Playback” is the first retrospective in Germany of Steina (b. 1940, Reykjavík, Iceland), a trailblazer of video and media art. A classically trained violinist, Steina turned to video in the late 1960s and approached the medium with musical sensitivity. In her practice, sound generates image or vice versa.
Spanning from early documentary experiments to expansive multichannel installations, the exhibition traces Steina’s lifelong pursuit of what she calls “machine vision”: a playful, non-anthropocentric perspective that stretches perception beyond the human.
Led by Lydia Antoniou, one of the curators of the exhibition, you will gain insights into the collaboration with the artist, her approach, and the development of the exhibition.
Group size is limited to a maximum of 25 participants. The meeting point for the tour is in front of the exhibition.
We recommend purchasing the tour ticket online in advance.
