Sophie Gogl
Sophie Gogl was born in 1992 in Kitzbühel, Austria, and studied painting at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna with Prof. Judith Eisler. Gogl addresses the question of what narratives painted images can achieve in the face of an infinite world of images that appear and disappear again between the Internet, films, advertising and private motifs, often brought forth and sucked back in by data streams. Where the painter's gaze drifts into the offside, sometimes absurd, spaces in the imaginable and possibilities of a contemporary painting are revealed. Time and again, Gogl's practice also includes installations and combinations of different media. Solo exhibitions include Innsbrück International Biennial of the Arts (2024), DOCK20, Lustenau (2023), Kunsthaus Glarus (2023), Francis Irv, New York City (2022), the Museum für Angewandte Kunst in Vienna (2020) and the Galerie der Stadt Schwaz (2020). Gogl's work has been shown in group exhibitions at Julia Stoschek Foundation Berlin (2025), Kölnischer Kunstverein, Cologne (2024), Belvedere 21, Vienna (2023), Kunsthalle Friart, Freiburg (2022), Neuer Wiener Kunstverein Wien (2022, 2023), Kunsthalle Bern (2020).
