DEEDS CALENDAR: Lars Eidinger shows his photographs at K21 inDüsseldorf | until 26.01.2025

The Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen is showing the first monographic museum exhibition of the actor and artist Lars Eidinger (*1976) at K21. From 30 August, the exhibition ‘O Mensch’ presents a selection of photographs and videos taken between 2018 and 2024 (with a few exceptions dating back to 2006). The pictures, mostly taken on the road with a smartphone or SLR camera, convey the much-travelled actor’s view of the world. Whether at guest performance or film locations such as London, Paris, Beijing, Tokyo, Sydney, Seoul, New York or in his home city of Berlin – Eidinger directs his gaze to remote, inconspicuous details and magnifies them. Supposedly insignificant situations are captured both tenderly and mercilessly in all their contradictions.
