Unique artist’s book by GDR female artist Cornelia Schleime (1953 -), at least not mentioned in her Oeuvre catalogue. Cornelia Schleime is a German painter, performer, filmmaker and author, born in East Berlin under the GDR, she studied painting and graphic arts at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts before becoming a member of the underground art scene. A number of artists, including Schleime, were contributing to a strong feminist voice within East German underground art, working with a clear feminist idiom and feminist content, without realizing they were or actively participating in a larger international feminist debate. She was awarded the Hannah Höch Lifetime Achievement Award from the State of Berlin in 2016. After graduating, she moved from University in Dresden back to East Berlin’s Prenzlauer Berg, where she came into contact with the civil rights movement and Sascha Anderson, a close friend of hers who was later revealed to be part of the Stasi that was spying on her. In 1984, five years before the fall of the Berlin Wall, Schleime was permitted to leave for West Germany. This move meant, however, that she had to leave all her work behind in East Germany. Almost her entire body of works up to that date remained in the GDR and has disappeared. Schleime recalls „I went to the West with four or five pictures under my arm, a duvet, and my son. After I had found an apartment, the transport of my works was supposed to be organized. In the 24 hours, a girlfriend came and made a list of everything: 95 oil paintings, sculptures, and the photographic documentation of my actions. When she arrived, the apartment had been broken into and there was only garbage lying around.“ not yet in Judin (?)
