German, born in 1978


Painting occupies an essential place within the polyphonic work of Anne Imhof, born in 1978 in Giessen, Germany. She won the Golden Lion at the 2017 Venice Biennale for the best national participation as a representative of her home country for her performance Faust. In its mingling of themes such as the flow of time, our relationship to space, and the duality between the living and the inert, the radical nature of her work emphasises the fleeting, intense nature of our contemporary world.
