Lars Eidinger: "I love contradictions" - the brand that doesn't want to be one

Lars Eidinger, a renowned German actor, is exhibiting his photographs at the Kunsthalle Tübingen until the end of February, in a show titled "Lars Eidinger. Present Perfect". The exhibition features his photographs alongside works from the museum's collection, including pieces by Yves Klein and Sigmar Polke. Eidinger's photographs, which he describes as self-portraits, capture everyday moments and people, often from behind or from the side, as well as trees and hedges that have been geometrically trimmed.

His collaboration with the museum's director, Nicole Fritz, involved exchanging images over WhatsApp for almost a year to curate the show.
