TIM BERRESHEIM | Paris Photo Digital Sector

Tim Berresheim (*1975) is a pioneering figure in computer-based art, seamlessly blending art history, technology, science, and nature. He views the computer as a transformative tool, akin to the hand axe that once liberated humanity from caves. Focusing on the essence of images in the digital age, Berresheim explores the creative potential within contemporary visual culture. His work analyzes the often-overlooked elements that shape our humanity in a rapidly changing world. By harnessing advanced digital technologies, he meticulously crafts artworks that reflect our present. Distancing himself from dominant narratives of AI and social media, Berresheim defines the computer purely as a tool. His creations bridge the analogue and digital realms, questioning the boundaries of evolution. Recently, he has drawn inspiration from old masters like Pierre Bonnard, reimagining their colors and textures into innovative digital compositions. Berresheim's art invites viewers to navigate new processes, expanding language and acknowledging personal interpretations. His works represent a reimagined world that organizes chaos into narratives of human existence. Tim Berresheim studied at Kunstakademie Düsseldorf and HBK Braunschweig. He is represented in numerous national and international collections and institutions. In 2024, the NRW Forum Düsseldorf presented the comprehensive retrospective “Neue Alte Welt”.
