Vika Kirchenbauer: Compassion and Inconvenience

By Vika Kirchenbauer

In the spirit of (and inspired by) 18th-century visual culture, Kirchenbauer's longform video examines the origins of artistic self-fashioning, philosophy and morality

Through a 30-minute video work, Berlin-based artist Vika Kirchenbauer (born 1983) engages with the historical context of mid-18th-century London's cultural scene, a setting inextricably entangled with early capitalism, British imperialism and an emergent artistic elite.
