Charlotte Eschenlohr
German
Charlotte Eschenlohr was born in Munich, studied business management and received her doctorate in commerce. She used to be an investment manager and consultant and built a good reputation in the business world. Unable to contain her love for the arts, Charlotte changed course and became a professional artist in 2002, and studied among other artists with the German artist, Markus Lüpertz and the American artist, Donald Baechler. Currently Charlotte Eschenlohr lives and works in Munich, Beijing, and New York City. She runs her German studio in Munich. She also maintained a studio in New York City from 2004 until 2012. Since 2014 she has been working in her own studio in Beijing.
Because of her diverse backgrounds and identifications, Charlotte Eschenlohr's works break into the daily life of different cultures and demonstrate the contradictions of the global world. Demonstrating her interest in creating mix-media and collage artworks, most of Charlotte's works are two dimensional collage works that incorporate abstract painting and digital prints. Through the application of various expressive brushstrokes and photographs, her works can be regarded as a unique form of modern urban street art. 1 Identifying herself as anindependent feminist artist with a cross-culture background, Charlotte includes in her works her perspectives with regard to the different societies in which she has lived. She applies co-existing materials and figures in her works, combined with subjective high contrast color strokes to depict her expression and opinion about the place of the female in modern society.
