Margit Koppendorfer has been a freelance costume designer since 1987, among others for the Burgtheater in Vienna, the Berliner Ensemble, and theaters in Cologne, Munich, and Düsseldorf. She has also designed costumes for opera productions in Frankfurt, Leipzig, Lisbon, and Zurich. Between 1983 and 1997 Koppendorfer was appointed lecturer at the University of Applied Arts and later at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna.00During her forty-year career, Margit Koppendorfer has designed costumes for the greats of theater history: characters from Shakespeare, Brecht, and Handke, directed by Berghaus, Peymann, and Tabori, performed in Vienna, Zurich, and Berlin. Costume0Designs presents Koppendorfer?s often life-sized mixed-media design sketches on transparent paper and reveals through these unique illustrations how the costume designer accords identity to the characters. By alienating the real in a visionary0way, a latent truth emerges.00.
