A pioneering post-digital artist, Michael Weißköppel (1969, Bocholt, Germany) references and incorporates digital processes into his highly charged works. The immediacy of spray-painted marks and rapid erasures smash up against formal landscapes. While from a distance Weißköppel's landscapes feel photographic, each is painted in a manner that hints at abstraction and the urgency of 21st century culture.

Studied visual communication at Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences from 1995 to 2000 and then art at Braunschweig Academy of Fine Arts under John Armleder, Norbert Tadeusz and Lienhard von Monkiewitsch from 2000 to 2004.
