Trautwein
I am an interdisciplinary artist living and working
in San Francisco, California and Bruchsal, Germany. I received my
Meisterschueler degree (a German equivalent to the American MFA)
in painting from the university of the arts Berlin, Germany. I am
the founder of the experimental web art site jtwine.com
My
most recent work the evolving NIESATT drawing and multimedia hybridization
project is targeting issues of depersonalization, disinformation,
reproducibility and the unpredictability of the next thought; a
project where meaning and statement levels are overlying each other.
My work has been shown in museums, galleries and and alternative
art spaces in Europe the US, Latin America and Asia. Recent solo
exhibitions include: “The sleep of reason” at Margit
Haupt gallery, Karlsruhe, Germany 2005; “NIESATT” at
The Rat Pack, Berlin, Germany 2003; “the post biological plentitude
of ultimate emptiness” at The… gallery, Los Angeles
2001; “Narragonia” at Jan Baum gallery, Los Angeles
2001. My work is included in private, corporate and public collections.
My
work has been included in many books and publications such as Seattle
Times, LA Times, Stuttgarter Zeitung, El Centro, Hoy, Micromuseum,
Net art guide Frauenhofer institute, Badische Neuste Nachrichten,
Javamuseum, furtherfield, and the Micromuseum .
I'm
currently volunteering at Creativity Explored an art center for
artists with disabilities in San Francisco.
