Michael Müller on his work “The Given Day”

Film

Here, the German-British artist Michael Müller talks about the creation and significance of his room-filling painterly work “The Given Day” - on display in the staircase hall of the Neues Museum. 

This special exhibition, presented in the staircase hall of the Neues Museum, offers a dialogue on the meaning of time, mortality and the connection between past and present. Contemporary art meets historical space, refers to ancient models and offers a modern adaptation of the classical reception of the myth of the Dioscuri, who walk eternally between death and life.
