The New National Gallery in Berlin will present the installation 'Regular Animals' by artist Beeple, whose real name is Mike Winkelmann, in conjunction with Gallery Weekend Berlin. This exhibition marks a new chapter in Beeple's artistic practice and expands his engagement with artificial intelligence and digital culture. The installation will offer a fully immersive physical-digital hybrid environment featuring robotic elements.
Beeple is known for his innovative approaches in digital art and has made a name for himself in recent years, particularly through his work in the field of NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens). 'Regular Animals' will be his first presentation of works in Germany. The installation will showcase anthropomorphic animal figures adorned with the heads of globally recognized personalities. These figures are intended to be interpreted as a sociopolitical allegory of contemporary power structures.
The use of robotics and interactive elements in the installation aims to actively engage the audience in the artistic experience. Visitors will be invited to interact with the installations, further blurring the lines between digital and physical art. According to the exhibition's curators, this innovative approach will underscore Beeple's artistic vision and highlight the relevance of technology in contemporary art.
The exhibition 'Regular Animals' will be on view from April 29 to May 10, 2026, at the New National Gallery and promises to be a significant event in Berlin's art calendar. The New National Gallery, known for its outstanding collection of modern art, provides a platform for contemporary artists experimenting with new media and technologies.
Beeple has previously held numerous exhibitions worldwide and is considered one of the most influential digital artists of our time. His works often address social and political issues, prompting reflection on the challenges of today's world. The upcoming exhibition in Berlin is therefore highly anticipated and could open new perspectives on the role of art in the digital era.
