Life and career

Sabine Groschup was born in 1959 in Innsbruck as the daughter of a doctorate in economics and law and an office manager for the Tyrolean provincial government. Her older sister, Karin Pegoraro, is a biologist. She teaches at the Ferrarischule in Innsbruck and did her doctorate on the bald ibis . Her younger sister, Christiane Spatt, is an artist like herself. Both have exhibited together several times.

Her parents separated in the early 1980s. The family broke up completely with their father, who set up the Innsbruck Tourism College and was director for it for many years. At the same time he played a leading role in the Rheno-Danubia student union , Innsbruck. He died in 2007. His father's previous relationship resulted in a half-sister.

The maternal grandmother, Olga Wille, played an important role in the upbringing of the three sisters. She died in 2001 at the age of 94. In 2006, Groschup set a cinematic monument with the animation "Gugug". Gugug was the typical greeting from the grandmother from Gries am Brenner . It is used by Groschup to this day.

Groschup attended the Bundesgymnasium and Bundesrealgymnasium Sillgasse in Innsbruck . Her long-time class leader was the art teacher and artist Martha Murphy, who was trained at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna . In March 1979 Groschup graduated from high school with the final exam. Already in October 1978 she enrolled at the University of Innsbruck . There she first studied archeology and prehistory and early history, from the 1979 summer semester then architecture, a. a. with Josef Lackner .

Constant political disputes with his father led to the early departure of his parents' apartment on Innsbruck's Innrain , in an apartment building planned by Norbert Heltschl . In 1978 she married the Innsbruck film theorist Helmut Groschup, who later founded the IFFI Internationales Film Festival Innsbruck . Only a few years later, the two separated. The marriage was divorced in 1994.

In 1980 the company moved to Vienna. There she began studying architecture with Wilhelm Holzbauer at the University of Applied Arts Vienna , in a male-dominated class. Due to a lack of acceptance of architectural drafts and concepts, Groschup abandoned his architecture studies in 1982.

Sabine Groschup with Maria Lassnig, Vienna 2008

She tried to be accepted into the newly created “Master Class for Experimental Design” of the painter Maria Lassnig, who was appointed to the Applied Arts in 1980 . The class was originally founded for Joseph Beuys . Lassnig was the first woman to receive a professorship for painting in German-speaking countries. Lassnig accepted Groschup initially as a guest student and from the winter semester of 1982 as a regular student in her class. Maria Lassnig, who was living in New York at the time of her appointment, tied the condition of being able to set up an animation studio to start teaching. According to Lassnig, painting should be set in motion here. The teaching studio for experimental animation film was founded by her. Groschup was fascinated by the possibility of the moving picture. She was the one who shot the first cadre in the newly created animation studio, and her films "1220" and "Komeru Kanfas" were the first two films made there in 1983. By the end of Lassnig's teaching activity in 1989, Groschup had made 13 other animated films in the animation studio before she left the Angewandte in 1990.

In the same year she enrolled at the University of Vienna for ethnology. In 1992 she was de-registered. Groschup finished the studies she started in 1978 without a full degree.

After stays in Chicago, Hanover and Berlin, she has lived mainly in Vienna since 1997. Parallel to her artistic activity, Groschup works in the Vienna Technical Museum in the field of conservational object care. Since 2002 she has been an external employee, since January 2007 as an employee. She has also been a works council member there since 2010.

Groschup has been married to the German curator, exhibition organizer, producer and set designer Georg Weckwerth since 2002. The marriage remained childless.
