Career

Tax return on a beer mat - by Petra Perle

Petra Perle completed an apprenticeship as a goldsmith and worked in her father's antique shop on Westenriederstrasse in downtown Munich until 1995. As a jewelry designer, she stood out for her original designs. Since 1990 she has also worked as a painter and performance artist.

She achieved greater fame through a series of stamps she designed herself and through her commitment to saving the German hit: for five years, the “True Grand Prix” was a refreshing alternative to the formally frozen German preselection for the Eurovision Song Contest . At this event, unknown but talented singers and writers competed against each other. Participants included Bully Herbig , Thomas Hermanns , Dieter Landuris alias Viktor Bergman and others. v. a. The song I found very lucky, with you on the train to Osnabrück! von Cliff & Rexonah made it into the charts. The last two competitions were recorded by ZDF .

In addition, Petra Perle self-ironically propagated the color pink for years. In 1998 she ran for the German Bundestag with the “Hausfrauenclub 2000” party she founded and, as a direct candidate, won 0.5 percent of the vote in the Munich-Mitte district. She repeatedly appears with subversive and funny actions, for example when she demonstrated in front of a Scientology branch and bleated like a sheep, or when she put into practice the “tax return that fits on a beer mat”, which has been politically unsuccessful.

From January 2004 to November 2012 Petra Perle was the landlady of the Turmstüberl in Munich's Valentin-Karlstadt-Musäum . It was also she who donated a backward-running clock for the central tower of the Munich Isartor in 2005 . The numbers are mirror-inverted and the hands are also upside down. Reading the time requires a brief rethink.

The Bavarian television portrayed the Munich artist in 2005 in the series lifelines in a 45-minute feature entitled Petra pearl. I have the urge to go on stage.

Petra Perle was also popular as a columnist. From October 2016 she wrote for about a year for the weekend edition of the Münchner Abendzeitung , and from March 2006 to July 2016 weekly for Hallo München under the heading Blick vom Isartor .

In 2011 Petra Perle invented the fountain festival on the Viktualienmarkt, she also stands for the concept and the organization. In the 2014 municipal elections in Munich , Petra Perle was one of the city council candidates for the HUT group of voters . From 2015 to 2019 she was the owner of a handicraft shop in Munich and now writes non-fiction books with crochet instructions for the Droemer Knaur publishing house. After giving up the shop in 2020, Petra Perle and her husband moved into a house in the Bavarian Forest. Since then she has lived as the author of crochet patterns that she offers on the Internet.

Petra Perle has been married to the Munich musician Harald Kümpfel , a son of Ponkie , since 1983 . They have two sons together.
