Eberhard Bosslet

German · 1953

Eberhard Bosslet was born in Speyer, Germany, in 1953. He studied painting at the Berlin University of the Arts from 1975 to 1982. From the late 1970s his practice increasingly developed toward three-dimensional work, including sculpture, installation and site-specific intervention, alongside painting, photography and video.

His work frequently engages with architecture and the conditions of building and inhabiting space, exploring relationships between interior and exterior, private and public environments. Bosslet participated in documenta 8 in Kassel in 1987 and served as Professor of Sculpture and Spatial Concepts at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts from 1997 to 2019.
