Jorinde Voigt (b. in 1977 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany) lives and works in Berlin and Hamburg, Germany. She graduated from Katharina Sieverding’s master class at the UdK Universität der Künste, Berlin in 2004. Afterwards, from 2014 – 2019, she was professor of Conceptual Drawing and Painting at AdBK Akademie der Bildenden Künste, Munich, Germany. Since 2019, she is professor of Conceptual Drawing and Painting at HfBK Hochschule für Bildende Künste Hamburg, Germany.
Jorinde Voigt’s drawings and sculptural works develop rigorous, idiosyncratic systems to depict how one’s inner world – such as personal experience, emotion, and memory – intersects with external conditions. She works in series that often refer to a specific theme, using as a starting point a particular text or idea. She develops notational systems of grids, line networks, and patterns that translate parameters such as distance, speed, or frequency into visual compositions. The exploration of music and musical notations has always played an important role in her work.
Selected solo exhibitions were on view at KÖNIG LONDON, London, UK (2022); Dirimart, Istanbul, Turkey (2022); Akademie der Künste, Berlin, Germany (2022); Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien, Vienna, Austria (2020); BOZAR, Centre for Fine Arts, Brussels, Belgium (2020); Horst Janssen-Museum, Oldenburg, Germany (2019); St. Matthäus Church, Berlin, Germany (2018); Kunsthalle Nürnberg, Nuremberg, Germany (2017); Hamburger Bahnhof Museum für Gegenwart, Berlin, Germany (2016); Kunsthalle Krems, Austria (2015); Museo d’Arte Contemporanea, Rome, Italy (2014); and the Langen Foundation, Neuss, Germany (2013).
