Life

Trockel was born on 13 November 1952 in Schwerte, in Nordrhein-Westfalen in West Germany. Between 1974 and 1978, she studied anthropology, mathematics, sociology and theology while also studying at the Werkkunstschule of Cologne, at a time when the influence of Joseph Beuys was very strong there.[1][2]

In the early 1980s, she met members of the Mülheimer Freiheit artist group founded by Jiří Georg Dokoupil and Walter Dahn, and exhibited at the women-only gallery of Monika Sprüth in Cologne.[1][4]

Work

In 1985, Trockel began to make large-scale paintings produced on industrial knitting machines. These regularly featured geometric motifs or logos such as the Playboy Bunny or a hammer and sickle, and the trademark: Made in West Germany.[4] During the 1980s, she also worked for the magazine Eau de Cologne, which was focused on the work of women artists.[5]^: 252 In 1994, she created the Frankfurter Engel monument for the city of Frankfurt.[6] Since the late 1990s, she has worked extensively with clay and has also continued to produce both hand and machine knitted "paintings". Several of these paintings were exhibited in a retrospective, Post-Menopause, at the Museum Ludwig in Cologne in 2005.[5]^: 252 In 2011, Trockel won the Wolf Prize for painting.[3] In 2012, an exhibition of her work travelled from the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid to the New Museum in New York, the Serpentine Gallery in London and the Kunst- und Ausstellungshalle der Bundesrepublik Deutschland in Bonn.[4]

Trockel's work often criticises the work of other artists, or artistic styles such as minimal art.[5]^: 252
