Issue 364 February 16, 2010

Doro Hofmann is a Columbus Art Foundation Fellow and former master student of internationally acclaimed artist Franz Ackermann. She is a BFA and MFA graduate of the Karlsruhe State Academy of Art and Design in Karlsruhe, Germany and has shown in Germany and the United States. Her work has been exhibited in local art spaces including Pharmaka and the Architecture and Design Museum.

Excessive, sensual and kaleidoscopic, Hofmann’s image-saturated oil paintings comprise a meticulous study of the human impulse, desire. Magma-colored jewels and scintillating gold chains erupting from distant galaxies and lavish depictions of imaginary religious icons are some of the multifarious images Hofmann uses to visually construct how human desire motivates action, fantasy, destruction and uncertainty.

Doro has a solo exhibition at Ghettogloss Gallery running from February 13 to February 27, 2010.
