From music to philosophy to art - Jorinde Voigt's works on paper are not only aesthetically pleasing, but are also considered effective carriers of information. The written form of conveying information practised at universities was not enough for Voigt, which is why she switched from her studies of philosophy and literature to fine arts. Inspired by musical notation, she manages to deal with complex philosophical themes through visual language and tactfully applied handwriting. Jorinde Voigt was born in Frankfurt am Main in 1977. After studying philosophy and New German Literature at the Georg-August University in Göttingen, she completed her studies in fine arts as a master student at the University of the Arts with Prof. Katharina Sieverding in Berlin. Voigt is represented by the König Galerie in Berlin and the David Nolan Galerie in New York, among others. The artist has exhibited in all international group and solo exhibitions in Europe, America and Asia. Voigt is represented in important international collections such as the Center Pompidou Paris, the Museum of Modern Art New York, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Kupferstichkabinett Berlin, the Bundeskunstsammlung Bonn, the Hamburger Kunsthalle and the Graphische Sammlung Munich. Voigt works as a professor of painting/drawing at the Hochschule für bildende Künste in Hamburg.
