Summary

The Deichtorhallen Hamburg are showing the largest solo exhibition of the artist Katharina ­Sieverding to date on four floors of the Falckenberg Collection. Around 120 works span all ­phases of the artist’s oeuvre. For more than five decades, Katharina Sieverding has been one of the pioneers who recognized the diverse expressive possibilities of photography early on and ­continually expanded the medium conceptually and formally. Her subjects and artistic principle are "transformation processes, questions about identity, gender, and race," as she states. She became known for the unprecedented consistency with which she has used her portrait, enlarging and manipulating it in a variety of ways, in film and photography since the 1960s. Beginning in the 1970s she worked on large-format montages on the state of the world, first shown internationally at documenta 6 in 1977. The exhibition as well as the book places a special focus on the unbroken high topicality of earlier works and the artist’s ­interest in creating instal­lative approaches to the medium of photography.

Author Biography

Katharina Sieverding, born in 1941, is a German photographer. She is one of the pioneers of an expansion of the possibilities of the medium photography. Her serial photo sequences are both an expression of reflections on her own identity and a statement on political-social issues.

In 1972 she graduated as a master student in the class of Joseph Beuys and was a participant in Documenta 5, 6 and 7, 1976 and 1980 in the Venice Biennale, 1997 at the German pavillion. Dirk Luckow, born 1958, has been the General Director of the Deichtorhallen Hamburg since 2009. He graduated 1996 with a dissertation on Joseph Beuys and the American Anti-Form-Art. Luckow has since worked at the Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen in Düsseldorf, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York. He also worked as project manager for visual arts at the Siemens Arts Program in Munich, before he became Director of the Kunsthalle zu Kiel from 2002 to 2009.
