Künstler Tim Bohlender

Tim Bohlender


Tim Bohlender studied painting/graphics at the Staatliche Akademie der Bildenden Künste Karlsruhe with Prof. Marijke van Warmerdam, Frank Koolen and Lieven Hendriks and subsequently finished his studies as master student with Prof. Marijke van Warmerdam. He lives and works in Karlsruhe. 

 

Tim Bohlender's works are unique pieces that play with the aesthetics of technical reproducibility. In small formats, design elements of commercial graphics such as type, stencils, symbols and patterns are carefully selected and presented in their material aesthetics. Through reduction, Bohlender creates pictorial concentration; like in a chamber play, the "interior of painting" is set in relation to one another and balanced on a small surface.
