Magnus Schäfer's panel discussion with artist Taslima Ahmed and scholar Doreen Mende relates Polke's painterly work to digital images. Among other things, the discussion will address the extent to which painting itself can be understood as information (in the technical sense) and how Polke plays with the limits of this communication of information.
