Vita

Britta & Ron Helbig studied contemporary dance and movement theater in London, Lichtenstein, the Conservatory, Linz and at the dance academy in Berlin before they were compelled to the visual arts. Stey studied painting and fine arts at the Berea College, Kentucky; the Philipps Universität Marburg and at the UdK Berlin (Class of Baselitz as part of artists group Artists Anonymous). Also they cummulated an excessive experience of various practises in building and construction work which they incorporate in their installations.
As part of the 5-membered artists group "Artists Anonymous" they worked for four years in the fields of Installation, Painting, Photography, Video and Performance. Since 2010 they combine Photography, Performance, Painting and Installation as the artists duo GODsDOGs.
