Alex Grein`s artistic work focuses on the experimental exploration of the photographic medium. In her works, she negotiates both the omnipresence and constant expansion of image production and archives as well as their social relevance. She studied at the University of Applied Sciences Düsseldorf and the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf as a master student of Andreas Gursky. Since December 2022 she is Professor for Photography at Mainz University of Applied Sciences. Her works have been awarded and exhibited many times and are represented in numerous collections, including the DZ Bank Kunstsammlung and the Sammlung Kunsthaus NRW.
