Anne Imhof is a German visual artist, choreographer, and performance artist who lives and works in Frankfurt and Berlin. Imhof studied at Hochschule für Bildende Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main, completing her studies in 2012. Although drawing and painting are central to her practice, she is widely renown for performances which unfold as strange reveries. Imhof examines traditional images, structures and processes as she develops new ways to oppose dominant power dynamics and display human emotions in diverse formal configurations. In 2017, she received the Golden Lion at the 57th Venice Biennale for her exhibition and performance “Faust” at the German Pavillion. She was also the recipient of the 2017 Absolut Art Award in Stockholm, Sweden. Recent solo exhibition include the Hamburger Bahnhof, Berlin, 2016; Kunsthalle Basel, 2016; Galerie Buchholz Cologne, 2016, and Galerie Buchholz New York (with Eliza Douglas), 2017.
