Charlie Stein deals with dominant cultural aesthetics questioning existing modes of perception within the context of a highly digitized, visually overstimulated world. Her material is gathered through extensive research and translated into drawings, paintings, sculpture and text. Her focus lies on social structures, digital media and contemporary forms of communications and their aesthetics.
She has held lectures at the Pratt Institute in New York, the HFBK Hamburg, the UdK Berlin, and the Kunsthochschule Weissensee. Stein completed her master’s degree under Christian Jankowski in 2017. In 2019, Stein received the Art Prize of the City of Limburg, and in 2022, she was awarded the development grant of the Stiftung Kunstfonds Berlin. In 2020, she was nominated for the Villa Aurora Grant in Los Angeles, and in 2023, she was invited for the residency program at ISCP in New York.
Charlie Stein’s work has been shown internationally, including at the Songjiang Art Museum in Shanghai, the Sinopale 6, Kristin Hjellegjerde in London, within the collaboration House of Poetics with the Cooper Union in New York, as well as at the Museum Villa Merkel in Esslingen and as part of the Sculpture Triennial Bingen.
Charlie Stein lives and works in Berlin.
