Aesthetically, “Kaprow City” gives the impression of a battle of materials. According to the principle of overload, numerous themes and ideas overlap in the spaces, pictures, and films. Schlingensief incorporated the way the US American Happening artist Allan Kaprow (1927 – 2006) worked with the audience, as well as his reflections on a fictional film about the tragic death of Lady Di. The project offers one of the rare opportunities to see an installation by this extraordinary all-around artist.

A project of the Kunstsammlung Nordrhein Westfalen in cooperation with the Estate of Christoph Schlingensief and Aino Laberenz.
