Sebastiaan Bremer (born 27 June 1970) is a Dutch artist who lives and works in New York City.
Bremer turns photographs, found or snapped, of himself and his family into trippy, dusty memories that reveal the subconscious and the real world in one blink of an eye. He invents a poetic braille made up of text, personal symbols and ghostly shapes that, when integrated with their complex grounds, disappear again, buried in a sea of suspended dots. By slowly and laboriously painting on top of quickly taken snapshots, Bremer slows down time to render an interior landscape. [1]
Born in Amsterdam, Bremer attended the open studio program at the Vrije Academie in The Hague from 1989 until 1991. [2] During his early years he meticulously reproduced personal photographs in paint. He received the Werkbeurs Grant from FBKVB in the Netherlands and moved to New York in 1992 where he began to work primarily in black and white, reemphasizing his connection to photography.
In 1994 he had his first solo show at Galerie Reisel in the Netherlands and began both exhibiting in group shows and curating them. He was assistant to several artists in New York, and worked on production for the photographers Inez and Vinoodh from 1996 until 2000. [2]
In 1998, he produced Liza May Post's 'Trying' film and photograph. In that same year he attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine where he began experimenting with murals, collage paintings, and began drawing directly on photographs, the style which he continues to use today. [2]
In 1999, he finished his first large scale Ink on C-Print drawing entitled 10 AM-PM.
In 2001, he had a solo debut, 'Veronica' at Roebling Hall, New York. His work is part of several important collections in the US and abroad, including the Victoria & Albert Museum, The MoMA, Zabludowicz Trust, the Rabobank collection and Lodeveans Contemporary LLP.
A new solo exhibition of his work opened May 2, 2008 in Galerie Barbara Thumm, Berlin. In the same year he worked on a small edition of jewelry pieces in collaboration with Moritz Glik for Karen LaGatta editions, a commission for the Rabobank in the Netherlands and new works for various group shows, as well as an upcoming solo show at Mia Sundberg Galleri in Stockholm.
