Heide Hatry

(German, b. 1965)

Heide Hatry grew up on a pig farm in the south of Germany. She left home at the age of 15 to enroll in a sports school. She studied art at various German art schools and art history at the University of Heidelberg. She taught at a private art school for 15 years, while simultaneously conducting an international business as an antiquarian bookseller. Since moving to New York in 2003, she has curated numerous exhibitions in the United States, Germany, and Spain and has shown her own work at museums and galleries in those countries, as well. She has produced in the neighborhood of 200 artist’s books and edited more than two dozen books and art catalogues. Her book Skin was published by Kehrer, Heidelberg in 2005; Heads and Tales and Not a Rose by Charta, Milan/New York in 2009 and 2012 (U.S. 2013), respectively; and Icons in Ash by Station Hill Press, Barrytown, NY in collaboration with Ubu Gallery in 2017.
