Biography
Christoph Girardet (*1966, Langenhagen, DE) lives and works in Hanover, DE. From 1988 to 1993, he studied Fine Art, including film and video at the Braunschweig University of Art and completed his advanced studies as a master class student in 1994. His deconstructivist videos, video installations and films engage with the history of cinema and film, and with their conventions. At the same time, collage and montage techniques, combined with the use of found footage, open up a retrofuturistic perspective.
