Josefine Reisch

Josefine Reisch's practice is based on a critical, analytical and at the same time playful examination of the past. Her works are often re-editions and reinterpretations of historical or pop-cultural figures and narratives. In paintings, installations and textile works, she explores their ideological connections. Both the historical motifs and the techniques of her artistic practice serve as clear references to historicisation, as used by Bertolt Brecht in his Epic Theatre.  

Reisch lives and works in Berlin. Recent exhibitions include Half-Light at KW Institute for Contemporary Art (2024, Berlin), Pseudo at Gauli Zitter (2024, Brussels), Dowry at Galerie Noah Klink (2023, Berlin) and Cupid's Bow at Bel Ami (2022, Los Angeles). She was a participant in the BPA// Berlin Program for Artists from 2023-2024.
