Peles Empire is a two-person collaboration composed of the artists Barbara Wolff (b. 1980, Romania) and Katharina Stöver (b. 1982, Germany). They studied at the Stedelschule School of Art in Germany, the Slade School of Art in the UK, and the Royal Academy. Since the establishment of the group in 2005, Peles Empire have also run a variety of exhibition spaces under the same name, first in London, England and Cluj, Romania, and now in collaboration with other artists in operating a space in Berlin, Germany.
