Joep Van Liefland

Liefland's work focuses on the phenomenology of media and their transformation. He is particularly interested in impermanence and disappearance within our current state of constant technological progress. Using the example of technology, Liefland addresses the process of alteration and transformation as well as the universal concepts that underlie the transition from old to new. His work uses various outdated distribution and storage devices, arranged in installations as in the work series "Video Palace." They are also used to create sculptures, wall objects, screen prints, and collages. Since 2001, Joep van Liefland runs the art space AUTOCENTER with Maik Schierloh in Berlin.

He has exhibited his work extensively in solo and group shows internationally.
