The German Pavilion at the 59th International Art Exhibitionโla Biennale di Venezia in 2022 will feature the artist and DFA faculty member Maria Eichhorn. Eichhorn (*Bamberg in 1962) lives in Berlin and has been chosen by the curator Yilmaz Dziewior:
โMaria Eichhorn is the artist I have always wanted to see in the German Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. Because in my view there are few artists who address themselves to German history and its impact on the present in as multifaceted and intensive a manner as Maria Eichhorn.โ โYilmaz Dziewior
Maria Eichhornโs work has been on view in numerous solo and group exhibitions internationally. She has been teaching at the Bachelor of Fine Arts programme of the ZHdK since 2003.
โWith her visually minimal gestures, spatial interventions, and process-based works, Eichhorn critically examines institutional power structures and political and economic interrelationships.โ (press release)
