Gaby Weißenfels was born in Schwedt in 1962 and grew up in Berlin. She began drawing in the early 1980s. At the same time, she had her first theater experiences at the Berlin State Opera and in the Berliner Ensemble (workshop for theater sculpture). In 1990, she founded the mobile puppet theater Karotte and has performed for children and adults ever since.
In the theater, she acts, writes texts, builds figures and stage sets. Her fascination with narratives, as well as switching between different voices and roles, is also reflected in her artistic work under the pseudonym Ella von Freyenstein. In the exhibition Lampenfieber, the artist's early drawings and sculptures meet for the first time with new paintings and lamps, as well as some selected theater figures and stage elements from the last decades.
Entrance fee: 5,- / 4,-
