The "UNLOCK" conference format of ZEITmagazin decodes the future of the creative industry in the fields of art, film, fashion and music. Following "UNLOCK Style by ZEITmagazin" in the context of the Berlin Fashion Week, "UNLOCK Art by ZEITmagazin" should be conceived of as a door opener for new spaces for art.
This year, UNLOCK ART by ZEITmagazin took place in cooperation with ART COLOGNE, WELTKUNST and KUNST UND AUKTIONEN, and we spoke with, among others, Daniel Hug, Director of ART COLOGNE, about current developments on the art market, with Kamel Mennour about the art of bringing together different artist generations and eras, with Sakhile Matlhare about the art of Africa, with Isabelle Niehsen about the art of flowers, with Professor Hans Ottomeyer about the art of antiques, with Sven Fischer about the art of the racing bike and with Stella von Senger, Sebastian Hoffmann and Cecil von Renner about the art of decoration.
