Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie (ZKM) (Center for Art and Media Technology) in Karlsruhe, Germany is an interdisciplinary research institution focusing on new media.

Since its doors opened in 1997, the ZKM has become an important platform for the production and exhibition of contemporary art and emergent media technologies. The building is a 312 metre long converted former arms factory of IWKA and is shared with the University of Art and Design Karlsruhe.

The ZKM frequently hosts lectures, conferences, exhibitions and screenings, and regularly publishes several books and media. Professor Peter Weibel has been incumbent as the ZKM curator since 1999.
