Biography

Born in Germany, Anne Imhof has established a multidisciplinary practice that spans performance, choreography, painting, and installation. She is known for her endurance-based works that often engage with the architecture of their host sites, creating immersive environments that challenge the boundaries between the performer and the spectator.

While her performance work remains a central pillar of her career, Imhof maintains a rigorous focus on painting and drawing. Her recent output includes the Poppy Runner series, which marks a shift into color painting, and large-scale site-specific sculptures that respond to the structural nuances of museum spaces.

Imhof continues to receive international institutional recognition, including her 2026 solo exhibition Fun ist ein Stahlbad at the Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art in Porto. Her work is frequently presented in collaboration with major galleries such as Sprüth Magers, where she continues to debut new developments in her painting and moving image practice.
