Andreas Schulze (born 1955) is a German painter.
Early life and education edit
Schulze was born in Hanover.[1] From 1978 through 1983, Schulze attended the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, where he studied under the painter Dieter Krieg.[2]
Career and work edit
Andreas Schulze first began showing alongside neo-expressionist artists in the 1980s, although his work was considerably less gestural than that of his contemporaries.[3] The artist instead opted for more rounded forms, which he used to create a playful, humorous style of figuration. Typical subjects included the contents interior spaces – such as pillows, lamps, and furniture – which he merged with more ominous abstraction.[3][4][5][6] Another significant aspect of his practice is the construction of immersive installations, which include painted walls and floors, objects of his own design, and found furniture.[3]
In 1985, shortly after he began exhibiting, Schulze established a relationship with the gallerist Monika Sprueth, whom he continues to work with.[7] Schulze is represented by Team Gallery in New York and Sprüth Magers in Cologne, Berlin, London and Los Angeles.[8]
