Thomas Scheibitz, Living German Painter

Skilift
1999

Berlin painter Thomas Scheibitz channels Cezanne, Picasso, Duchamp, and any number of other modernist icons in his large and painterly performances. He was born in East Germany in 1968 and studied at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts (where many famous recent German artists studied). When the Wall fell in 1989 Scheibitz had just reached his twenties. By the mid-nineties he had already achieved recognition in faraway New York. Since then, he has continued ascending the mainstream ladder of gallery celebrity.
