House of Electronic Art

The place (Haus der elektronische Kunst, HeK) is dedicated to digital culture and the new art forms of the information age. It is a place for creative and critical discourse on the aesthetic, socio-political and economic impact of media technologies. The House shows contemporary art that explores and configures new technologies; it promotes an aesthetic practice that uses information technology as a medium, makes it vividly accessible and actively intervenes in its processes. The House thereby addresses the pressing issues of twenty-first-century culture and makes an active contribution to their future evolution.
