Maria Eichhorn (artist)
Maria Eichhorn (born November 19, 1962 in Bamberg ) is a German artist. She lives in Berlin.
Life
Maria Eichhorn studied from 1984 to 1990 at the Hochschule der Künste in Berlin with Karl Horst Hödicke . Maria Eichhorn's conceptual and institution-critical works address central issues of art production, the relationship between artwork and recipient, as well as questions about the autonomy of the artwork and value creation processes. Her projects pursue socially relevant and political content and use a reduced aesthetic language. In 2002 she took part in Documenta 11 in Kassel. In 2017 Eichhorn will again be represented at Documenta 14 , among other things with the art project Building as unowned property . Its intention is to “transform the legal status of a building into the status of non-ownership”.
