Annika Kahrs (b. 1984) lives and works in Berlin, Germany. In her practice, she explores the boundaries of what is generally understood as music, examining its cultural and social functions, communicative aspects, and formal nature. Through performances, video, and sound installations,, Kahrs investigates the roles that music, sound, and other forms of acoustic information play within diverse social, cultural, and political contexts of coexistence. Cross-disciplinary collaboration is an essential part of her process.
Recent and upcoming solo shows include Hamburger Bahnhof—Nationalgalerie der Gegenwart, Berlin (2025); La Banda, Produzentengalerie Hamburg, Hamburg (2024); Gravity’s Tune, Schering Stiftung, Berlin, (2023); Nassauischer Kunstverein Wiesbaden (2023), how to live in the echo of other places, in cooperation with IMAGINE THE CITY, Hamburg (2022). Kahrs studied Fine art in Braunschweig, Germany, Vienna, Austria, and Hamburg, Germany, where she graduated in 2012.

The Videoart at Midnight Editions series is the result of a discussion with leading experts in the field of timebased media art regarding the conventional art market practice of limitation vs. the artist’s and public’s interest in visibility and representation in a broader range of collections. Hence, the Videoart at Midnight Editions series both addresses the wish of artists and collections for copyright and quality control of art works, and the need of doing justice to an endlessly reproducible medium and affordable
prices. Together with chosen artists who have been featured in the Videoart at Midnight screenings at Berlin’s Babylon film theatre in recent years, an outstanding work from their oeuvre—film or installation—is exclusively selected or newly produced. The work is published in an edition of 40 copies and is solely available in this series.
