Jutta Koether
Based in New York and Berlin, Jutta Koether is a painter, performance artist, musician, critic, and theoretician. Her conceptual paintings challenge the viewer’s understanding of the medium’s terms and histories, often appropriating and retooling elements from the work of male masters.
Born in Cologne in 1958, Jutta Koether studied art and philosophy at the University of Cologne and the Independent Study Program of the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York. Her work resides in such collections as the Museum of Modern Art and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Kunsthalle Bern; mumok – Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig, Vienna; MMK Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt; Musée d’Art moderne de la Ville de Paris; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; and Museum Brandhorst.
