Lars Reiffers

Lars Reiffers first studied painting in Aix-en-Provence, the birthplace of Paul Cezanne, before continuing his studies at the Kunstakademie Munster in 1999 in the class of Professor Kuhna and being appointed his master student in 2002. Inspired by his teacher, Reiffers developed his artistic signature at an early age, which is characterized by an exuberant visual abundance.The camera always replaces the sketch pad in the process of creating a picture, and Reiffers has collected a gigantic archive of motifs that are brought to new life in his studio. The photographic templates are projected onto the screen, but in the end they subtly deviate from reality. Color, form and space thus develop independently on the canvas.Text in English and German.
