Annette Schulze-Lohoff lives and works in Germany and studied Visual Arts, Biology and Education in Münster. She is a founding member of the German artist's collective Ultramarine. Annette has exhibited internationally in Italy, Swizerland, Germany, Poland, Austria and the UK.
Together with the Bergkamen Council for the Arts she developed, produced and curated the Bergkamen International Performance Day an ongoing festival of performance. She also completed a residency in the Giardino Di Daniel Spoerri in Italy and recently the Artist as Nomad workshop with Geoff Hendricks in Salzburg.
Annette’s work deals with site-specificity and metamorphoses through durational performance pieces that are stark and clean in their design and conception. She develops her visuals and concepts utilizing natural materials, found objects and specifically discarded items. These objects are part of her balance between action and installation in which the body is transformed via a performance.
Her work has been widely published in a variety of catalogues, science magazines, educational publications and popular media.
