ZKM's collection is particularly strong on the video side of things with some excellent sculptural work. It was interesting to seem them together, although perhaps a bit crowded for the sculptures.
Fast Forward is an astonishing selection of contemporary video from the collection of Ingrid Goetz, which does not appear to leave out many significant artists working in the medium in the 90s. The videos by Sam Taylor-Wood, a three-screen projection, Atlantic, and Tracey Emin'sThe Interview are knockouts, but so are a lot of the other works.
