Christa Biedermann

Christa Biedermann, Austrian artist who lives in Berlin and Vienna shows animations and performance films. The artist who eludes any kind of categorization, paints, draws, photographs and makes films and videos, where she mostly appears herself in front of the camera. In her videos, she critically and ironically questions the society and the demands on the artists by the society, especially on female artists. She thus markedly disappoints expectations on her work as image-artifacts as well as the expected image of her as woman and artist

Born in 1953, Christa Biedermann was predominantly inspired by the 1970s. Conceptualism is often perceived as a response to Minimalism, and the leading art movement of the 1970s, challenging the boundaries of art with its revolutionary features.
