Step into a painting that breathes with the rhythm of life and death. Michael Müller fills the Neues Museum's grand staircase with a monumental work inspired by the Dioscuri myth: one twin mortal, one immortal, choosing to share their fate day by day. The artist painted each section at its corresponding hour, so the canvas itself carries the weight of passing time.
