“The exhibition Evil Clowns organised by HMKV at Dortmunder U explored the figure of the evil clown in contemporary and popular culture (film, music videos, advertisement, political activism) by highlighting its inherent ambivalence and tracing its mutation from popular entertainer to creepy villain.” (HMKV)

I translated various texts and work descriptions from German to English or vice versa.
