Artist Talk- WTF* IS IDENTITY NOW? 

Artist Talk- WTF* IS IDENTITY NOW? 

Silvia Beck | Claudia Schmitz 

Artist talk with Bruno Besana, Philosopher

Starting from different perspectives, Silvia Beck and Claudia Schmitz negotiate the existential question of human identity and the artistic self. The artists create an experimental set-up for the exhibition in which they explore both the mechanisms of artistic self-staging and the phenomenon of artificial artistic intelligence. Their playfully synchronised arrangement uses the media of video and projection on sculpture as well as drawing and text and invites visitors to take a fresh look at the future of artistic self-understanding and authenticity.
