Brigita Huemer

Brigita Huemer was born in Austria in 1972 and lives and works in Rome. Since she was a child she developed an interest in fine arts and photography. In 1999 she began working as assistant for the photography agency, Walter Schupfer, shortly thereafter, she became studio manager of the photographer Todd Eberle.

Her education begins at The Art Students League in New York and continues with the diploma obtained in 2005 at the Department of Fine Arts at the School of Visual Art. Initially she approached the naturalist photographic technique and continue with the artistic experimentation: first on the human figure with portraits and then on the abstraction of nature’s form.

She took part in various shows including Das Ei, a project organized in 2013 for the Flashback fair in Turin. In 2017 she exhibited at the show Ricordi Futuri 2.0 at the Polo del '900 in Turin and at the exhibition The trace of memory at the European Parliament in Bruxelles. In the same year there are two solo exhibitions: one at El Magazen dell'Arte di Venezia and the other at the Galleria Ferrero Arte Contemporanea in Ivrea.

Brigita Huemer’s artworks have a signature style. that is recognizable in the repetition of modular geometrical shapes that have been programmatically established, through the rhythmic passage from monochrome. It’s therefore a never monotonous and mechanical repetition of itself because each of these variations, in a cause-effect relationship, generates a total displacement of all the internal equilibriums of the pictorial composition.

In 2018 she participated to the exhibitions: Ricordi futuri 4.0 - Cosa c'è in fondo al binario at Memorial of the Shoah in Milan and Unforgettable Childhood both curated by Ermanno Tedeschi. In May 2018 is held the exhibition EMOTIVA: Brigita Huemer, Angelica Romeo at Mucciaccia Contemporary curated by Cesare Biasini Selvaggi.
