Marlene Bart is not only the founder of TURBA Factory in Berlin, but also part of the management team. As 2nd chairperson of the board of TURBA e.V. and former curator of the TURBA Gallery in Hanover, she brings her many years of experience and creative talent to the management level of the TURBA Factory.
She lives and works in Berlin. She studied “Fine Arts” with Professor Wolfgang Ellenrieder at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste Braunschweig (HBK), at the Villa Arson (École nationale supérieure d’art) in Nice and at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. She holds a Master’s degree in “Art in Context” from the Berlin University of the Arts (UdK) and was a lecturer at the HBK Braunschweig from 2017 to 2020 and at the Bauhaus University Weimar since 2020.
In her artistic practice, Marlene Bart deals with the combination of scientific and artistic visual language. She focuses on the artistic potential of scientific objects, phenomena and illustrations in works such as anatomy models, specimens, cabinets of curiosities or encyclopaedias. The use of multimedia techniques enables her to combine a variety of image content in a playful way, to refer to the historical dimension of scientific publications and to place them in a contemporary context.
