From 12 April, the first mid-career museum retrospective of the artist, writer and filmmaker Hito Steyerl (b. 1966, München) will be on view in ten rooms of the Van Abbemuseum’s old building. This comprehensive exhibition will include ten works from the past decade alongside three new pieces, namely Liquidity Inc. (2014), Shunga (2014) and Surveillance: Disappearance (2013). The exhibition will open on Saturday 12 April with a new lecture by Hito Steyerl called “35 Ways To Break Through A Wall.”

 

Steyerl is considered to be one of the most exciting artistic voices today, who speculates on the impact of the internet and digitisation on the fabric of our everyday lives.

Hito Steyerl is among the most adroit observers of our thoroughly globalized, digitized condition. Her practice describes with uncommon precision the fluidity and mutability of images—how they are produced, interpreted, translated, packaged, transported, and consumed by a multitude of users.
