Person properties

General info :
Maximilian "Max" Siedentopf (born 27 June 1991) is a Namibian-German artist, designer, photographer, publisher and director.

He investigates social, cultural, and political situations in his artistic practice through straightforward and satirical approaches.

The pop culture relevancy of his work let Vogue Italy coin him as “viral artist”.

From 2013 to 2020 he worked as a Creative Director for the creative agency KesselsKramer, founded in 1996 by Dutch artist Erik Kessels. Max Siedentopf is also the founder of the art publication ORDINARY, which was nominated for Magazine of the Year at the STACK AWARDS.

He is known for having set up an installation titled Toto Forever in the Namib Desert which consists of a ring of large white blocks atop of which sit six speakers attached to a solar-powered MP3 player configured to continuously play the 1982 song Africa by the American band Toto. The exact location of the installation has not been disclosed.

Siedentopf grew up in the city of Windhoek in Namibia, and continues to work in Berlin, Los Angeles, Amsterdam, and London. He is a former competitive swimmer.

In June 2019, Siedentopf starred in the music video for "Mine Right Now", a song by Norwegian singer Sigrid. This was due to Sigrid's flight being cancelled, the singer therefore being unable to appear in the video herself.
