The German Pavilion at the 59th International Art Exhibition—la 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:
„Maria 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.“ —Yilmaz Dziewior
Maria Eichhorn’s 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.
„With her visually minimal gestures, spatial interventions, and process-based works, Eichhorn critically examines institutional power structures and political and economic interrelationships.“ (press release)
