Life and work

Krautgartner was born in 1988 in Schwelm, Germany and currently lives and works in Wuppertal. [4]

He graduated from the Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts with a degree in photography and graphic design. Digital photography is the basis for his work today. He uses helicopters and light planes to capture his objects -architectural interiors, urban skylines, remote landscapes- from different perspectives which he later uses to digitally select and frame aesthetically appealing views. His landscapes include icy mountains, volcanoes, glaciers, fjords and salt fields in many countries.

Krautgartner's work has been used in NatGeo, [5] Der Spiegel, [2] Colossal, [3] The Mirror, [6] Novosti, [7] FAZ, [8] Die Welt and [9] WDR, [10] and Yahoo! News, [11] which annotated his images as being evocative of abstract masterpieces.
