Jochen Schambeck
Jochen Schambeck studied at the State Academy of Fine Arts Karlsruhe under Horst Antes and the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart under Sotirios Michou. Additionally, he held a teaching position at the Caspar David Friedrich Institute for Art Sciences at the University of Greifswald.
His works resemble explosive fireworks of colour. He applies thick layers of oil paint with his typical expressive style, creating almost three-dimensional shapes on canvas. He allows the colours to melt, squeezes them directly from the tube onto the painting surface or piles them up, developing an enchanting surface texture.
Many of his works can be found in private collections in German-speaking countries. Jochen Schambeck lives and works in Karlsruhe, Germany.
