DESCRIPTION:Judith Hopf\n\nFriday April 27, 2007\nLecture Hall, 5:00pm\n\nIn her art, 
 Judith Hopf deals with stories and aesthetics associated with the sphere of 
 everyday culture, using forms of expression including performance, video, 
 sculpture, and works on paper. Her choice of medium, however, is less 
 decisive than her passionate interest in the field where politics, art, and 
 theory overlap, which can be considered as the frame of reference for many 
 of her projects. A recurrent issue in her work is her profound skepticism 
 towards all forms of homogenization and the forgetting that accompanies it. 
 According to Hopf, this “tyranny of the same” and the “unfinished” 
 has something eerie about it. Other regular features of her work are a 
 paradoxical panopticon of self-portrayal and a belief in a brightly 
 colored, glamorous pop poetic. Many of Hopf’s works are developed in 
 collaboration with other artists and theoreticians. On the basis of 
 critical observations of the everyday, a feeling of political unease with 
 society, and the adaptation of various stories from literary and cinematic 
 sources, she has realized a series of co-productions, the latest of which 
 appear in her show at Secession Vienna. Hopf was guest lecturer at the Merz 
 Academy Stuttgart, and guest professor of sculpture and video art at the 
 Kunsthochschule, Berlin, Weissensee. She lives and works in Berlin.\n\n
