Hobbypopmuseum

The artist group hobbypopMUSEUM (Sophie von Hellermann, b. 1975, lives and works in London; Marie-C�line Sch�fer, b. 1967, lives and works in Zhaoqing, China; and Christian Jendreiko, b. 1969, Matthias Lahme, b. 1974, Dietmar Lutz, b. 1968, and Andr� Niebur, b. 1973, who live and work in D�sseldorf) first came to public notice with a self-designed project at the old central post office in D�sseldorf in 1998. The piece was an early example of the collective's characteristic approach: they like to work in interactive fashion and scrutinize the phenomena of the "museum" and the "exhibition" from a variety of angles. To this purpose, they employ a wide range of media: their ensembles incorporate paintings, sculptures, photographs, and video pieces in visually powerful installations.
