Michael Reisch (born 1964) is a German artist and photographer. Reisch exhibited nationally and internationally. His works are included in collections worldwide, including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, USA and National Gallery of Scotland Edinburgh, Scotland. His works combine aspects of documentary photography, painting and sculpture. He lives in Düsseldorf.




Early life and education


Reisch was born in Aachen. He studied at "Stadsacademie voor toegepaste Kunsten" Maastricht in 1985 and at Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam 1986 – 91. 1991 he was enrolled in postgraduate studies at Kunstakademie Düsseldorf with Bernd Becher.




Career


In 1990 Reisch was Artist in Residence at the Foundation Cartier in Paris. He created a series of works, "architectures", between 1991 and 2004, which depict mainly architecture of the 1970s. In 2002 he received a scholarship from the Foundation Kunst und Kultur des Landes Nordrheinwestfalen. Between 2002 and 2006, Reisch worked on a body of work titled "landscapes". His second group of works, "new landscapes", were created from 2007 to 2010, after he received a scholarship from Stiftung Kunstfonds in Bonn. Since 2010 Reisch has combined fully digitally generated abstract works with landscape photography in his exhibitions.
Reisch's works are large-sized photographs, often highly processed by digital editing techniques. He uses these techniques to erase civilizing signs and marks from the buildings photographed.
