Gropius Bau presents work by Christoph Schlingensief across political actions, theatre, opera, film and the visual arts. The show is not a retrospective in the classic sense: the focus is not on the completed work but on questioning, doubting and failing.
It opens with the large installation Kaprow City in the atrium and continues through eight rooms of installations and video works, with documentary film and archival material. It is the most comprehensive presentation of Schlingensief's work in Germany in over a decade.
Curated by Raphael Gygax with Dalwin Kryeziu and Christopher Wierling. The show addresses colonial violence, racism and discrimination against people with disabilities, and contains racist and ableist language as well as strobe effects. Closed on Tuesdays.
