Tabea Nixdorff is an artist, typographer and researcher. Her artistic practice involves (self)publishing, sound and language based performances, collaborative learning and social gatherings. Often working with/in archives, or libraries, Tabea’s works delve into micro-histories while touching upon broader themes such as omissions and distortions in historical narratives, embodied knowledges, queer belonging and a feminist poetics of error.

Tabea studied at the Academy of Fine Arts Leipzig, Germany; School of the Art Institute of Chicago, US; and Werkplaats Typografie, Arnhem, the Netherlands. In 2019, her essay Fehler lesen. Korrektur als Textproduktion [“Reading Errata. Correction as Textual Production”] was published by Spector Books Leipzig. Her artist’s books are held in several public collections, including at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, US; the Los Angeles Public Library, Los Angeles, US; the Newberry Library, Chicago, US; and at the Weserburg Centre for Artists’ Publications, Bremen, Germany. Tabea has done performative readings, often collaboratively, in various places, such as the GfzK – Galerie für zeitgenössische Kunst, Leipzig, and diffrakt – centre for theoretical periphery, Berlin, both in Germany.
