carsten nicolai, born 1965 in karl-marx-stadt, is a german artist and musician based in berlin. he is part of an artist generation who works intensively in the transitional area between music, art and science. in his work he seeks to overcome the separation of the sensory perceptions of man by making scientific phenomenons like sound and light frequencies perceivable for both eyes and ears. influenced by scientific reference systems, nicolai often engages mathematic patterns such as grids and codes, as well as error, random and self-organizing structures. his installations have a minimalistic aesthetic that by its elegance and consistency is highly intriguing. after his participation in important international exhibitions like documenta x and the 49th and 50th venice biennale, nicolai?s works were shown worldwide in extensive solo and group exhibitions.
