The Rise and Fall of Erik Schmidt

About this Event

Erik Schmidt (* 1968 in Herford, lives in Berlin) works across painting, drawing, photography, video, and performance. The KINDL presents his extensive body of work in multiple chapters, creating a multifaceted self-portrait that probes questions of (queer) identity, community, and individuality. Through richly layered compositions, Schmidt offers a perspective that is at times brutal and often humorous, exposing underlying social norms and structures.
