Andy Hope 1930:

Andy Hope 1930 (born Andreas Hofer) draws on the universe of the imagination using a vast range of media, and extending the realm of the pictorial from flat image to relief, sculpture, installation and meta-installation. His art takes equally from real and fictional subjects, dissolving the difference between the two so as to create a phantasmagoria that is rooted in collective culture.

Hope’s work is made up of superheroes from the Golden and Silver Age of Comics such as Flash Gordon, Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman with futuristic pieces including spaceships and laser beams.

Andy Hope 1930 lives and works in Berlin.
