“Dietmar Schneider is concerned with the people themselves, not necessarily their religious, political or geographical background.”
The universal perspective
Dietmar Schneider’s focus on the universally human enables viewers to recognize connections across cultural and social boundaries. His depictions are testimonies to individual lifeworlds, which together paint a multifaceted picture of the human condition.
He approaches his subjects with a sensitivity that makes the special in the everyday and the unifying in the different visible. The works invite us to question our own ideas and open up new levels of understanding.
An observer of the human condition whose work captures the essence of the individual. His perspective is a profound exploration of existence, beyond superficial categories.
