          Katharina Fritsch

          German sculptor

          Katharina Fritsch (born 14 February 1956) is a German sculptor.[1] She lives and works in Düsseldorf, Germany.[1]

          Early life and education

          Fritsch was born on 14 February 1956 in Essen, West Germany.[1][2] Fritsch first studied history and art history at the University of Münster and, in 1977, transferred to Kunstakademie Düsseldorf where she was a student of Fritz Schwegler until 1984.[3]

          Work

          Fritsch is known for her sculptures and installations that reinvigorate familiar objects with a jarring and uncanny sensibility.

          Her works' iconography is drawn from many different sources, including Christianity, art history and folklore. She attracted international attention for the first time in the mid-1980s with life-size works such as a true-to-scale elephant along with replicas of everyday objects like a large display stand filled with statues of Madonna.
