About
Daniel Beerstecher, born 1979 in Schwäbisch Hall, Germany, lives and works in Stuttgart, Rio de Janeiro and on the road. From 2003-2010 Beerstecher studied at the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart. He received numerous scholarships and awards for his artistic work and exhibited his works in renowned international institutions, including solo exhibitions in São Paulo, Göppingen, Rio de Janeiro, Karlsruhe, Stuttgart and Berlin as well as participation in group exhibitions at Istanbul Modern, Istanbul; the B3 Biennale of the Moving Image, Frankfurt and the Montevideo Biennale 500 Years of Future.
His artistic work is characterized by installations, international travel and video performances, where Daniel Beerstecher meets a random audience. The art is taken from conventional spaces brought to public spaces in a process. The interference with people is a crucial part of his work. The aim is to create new spaces for interpretation and, in a certain sense, to put the "world order" to the test.
