About Signs of the Times

Signs of the Times is a curated exhibition series presenting tattooing as a form of contemporary art.
Every two years, a new edition is held at KiZ – Kultur im Zentrum Giessen, bringing together international tattooers who create artistic work beyond the skin.
The project also welcomes collaborations with galleries, museums, and art spaces, where selected works or curated excerpts can be exhibited.

Press Coverage

“There is more to tattooing than the tattoo on the skin.
At the same time, this exhibition is our way of giving something back to tattooing — by creating a space where its artistic depth can be seen.”
