Konrad Mühe

Konrad Mühe’s (b. Karl-Marx-Stadt, East Germany, 1982; lives and works in Berlin) works interrogate the construction of our identities by uncovering the technological and media apparatuses that sustain it and confronting it with the autonomous lives of objects. Their basic formal principle is the installation hybridizing sculpture and digital moving image, with a particular focus on the projector and the interaction of pedestal or suspension and projection screen. This book acts as a descriptive illustrated Guide to Mühe’s projects. Konrad Mühe was Hito Steyerl’s master student and trained at the Universität der Künste, Berlin and the Burg Giebichenstein Kunsthochschule Halle.
