Walkscreen was founded by artists' Ruthe Zuntz and Michael Reitz in 2000. Based in Berlin, Walkscreen’s purpose is to serve as an organisational base for artists who are developing and realizing small and large-scale non-profit artistic and cultural projects.
Walkscreen focuses on multimedia projects using the medium of photography and interactive installations, creating a direct and emotional link between cities, peoples and lives.
Walkscreen is a platform for multimedia artists engaged in socially critical affairs and brings together artists and combined different arts to create synergies in a number of projects in the past years.
Walkscreen works at the intersection between art, industry, politics and science, draws attention to selected aspects of the natural and created environment and encourages people to experience and understand these aspects by way of taking part in large scale multimedia installations. The focus is often, like in the Challenging Walls project, on the people, the places they live in and on how the places shape their lives.
Walkscreen is joined by other artists and specialists on a project basis.
Ruthe Zuntz and Michael Reitz are fellows of the German Young Academy of the Arts (AdK). Ruthe Zuntz also teaches multimedia art and photography at the Berlin University of Arts.
