German electronic music pioneers Kraftwerk kicked off eight nights of concerts at an iconic Berlin museum Tuesday with a multimedia performance of their classic album & quot;Autobahn & quot;. Founding member Ralf Huetter, 68, collaborated with other artists to make 3D films to be projected in the signature glass-and-steel shell of the Neue Nationalgalerie (New National Gallery) while the quartet performed its trailblazing brand of & quot;industrial folk music & quot;. The stunning modernist temple by Bauhaus architect Mies van der Rohe is hosting the back-to-back shows before it closes for several years for renovation. Kraftwerk & #039;s concerts have been sold out since November and come on the heels of other high-concept outings at the Sydney Opera House, New York & #039;s MoMA, the Tate Modern in London and Akasaka Blitz in Tokyo.
