About | Work |
David Ilzhoefer (b. 1990, Germany) is an artist based in Munich, Germany. He finished his
studies in Communication Design at the Akademie U5 in 2014, and studied Fine Arts at the
Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Munich and graduated with honors in 2022. Ilzhöfer's
paintings and sculptures combine personal mythology with found objects. Benefiting from past
and present visual culture, his works depict and reposition various viewpoints on
contemporary issues, which are mutually contradictory in most cases, in order to open up
spaces for further reflection.
His recent solo exhibitions include: “This used to be a house to me”, 2024,WhiteBox,
Munich; “Honey it‘s not what you think!”, 2024, Orangerie, Munich; “Casual Saturday”, Erna
Eckstein, Munich; “meanwhile when you least expect it”, 2023, Hidden Gallery, Prague; “also
dann, vielleicht bis später”, 2022, AkademieGalerie, Munich. His recent group exhibitions
