CV

Suse Weber (*1970, Leipzig) has developed her own concept of »emblematic sculpture«: In multi-layered compositional processes, consisting initially of movements of individual processes of pictorial logic (»pictorial vocabularies«), but also of mechanisms and conventions of actions; her transcriptions into sculptural and movement-triggering scenarios, she creates abutments. Abutments in which the most everyday forms of society and socialization become visible in an aesthetic over-marking. Suse Weber's artistic methods are characterized by multi-hybrid procedures in which new frameworks for interdisciplinary and collaborative work are developed, researched and implemented. 

Her works have been shown at venues including: Sprengel Museum, Hanover; KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin; Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin; Martha Herford Museum, Herford; Wiels Center for Contemporary Art, Brussels; Troubleyn Laboratorium, Antwerp; Pace Wildenstein, New York; Galerie Barbara Weiss, Berlin; Akademie der Künste, Berlin; GfZK Leipzig.

Her works can be found in the Bundeskunstsammlung, the Staatliche Kunstsammlung Dresden, the collection of the GfZK Leipzig as well as in national and international private collections.
