Biography
Katharina Sieverding was born in Prague on November 16, 1944. She first studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Hamburg from 1963 to 1964. From 1964 to 1967 Sieverding was then in the stage design course at the Düsseldorf Art Academy with Teo Otto. She then moved to Joseph Beuys' class, where she graduated as a master student.
Sieverding participated in the documenta in Kassel in 1972, 1977 and 1982. In 1997 she represented Germany at the Venice Biennale with the artist Gerhard Merz. From 1992 to 2007, the photographer held a professorship at the Hochschule der Künste in Berlin. From 1995 to 1998 she taught at the International Summer Academy of Fine Arts in Salzburg and from 2002 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Hangzhou. In addition, the photographer was a member of the University Council of the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts from 2008 to 2013. Since 2010, she has been a lecturer at the Graduate School of the University of the Arts in Berlin.
The photographer has lived and worked in Düsseldorf since the mid-1960s. Her work is in renowned collections such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.
Today Katharina Sieverding belongs to the top of the international art scene and is considered a pioneer in expanding the expressive possibilities of the medium of photography in terms of form and content. In her serial photographic works, she works with stylistic devices of superimposition and presents the viewer with role plays or self-portrayals, with which she takes a stand on political-social discourses, but also on the reflection of her own identity. Thus the artist herself is often a central motif in her works, which can be understood as a response to the body-centered feminism of her time.
