Römer + Römer

Römer + Römer, consisting of Nina and Torsten Römer, is an acclaimed German-Russian artist duo known for their vibrant and immersive paintings. Born in different countries, with Nina hailing from Moscow, Russia, in 1978, and Torsten from Aachen, Germany, in 1968, they both met during their studies at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, where they became Master Students under A.R. Penck. Since 1998, they have collaborated as both a couple and a creative duo, making Berlin their home and workspace since 2000​​.

Their unique approach to art often involves engaging with contemporary culture and events, as seen in their diverse exhibitions. From capturing the essence of the Burning Man festival in "Burning Man – Electric Sky" to exploring social themes in "Generalstreik," their work spans a broad spectrum of subjects. Notably, their participation in the 56th Venice Biennale and exhibitions across various cities showcases their international recognition and appeal​​.

Römer + Römer's method of creation is deeply collaborative, emphasizing communication and joint creativity over individual genius. This dynamic has allowed them to navigate the complexities of working closely together, transforming potential conflicts into constructive discussions. Their work is characterized by a rich, pointillist technique that marries traditional painting with digital pixelation, creating a bridge between classical art forms and contemporary digital aesthetics​​.

For art collectors and experts, Römer + Römer's work offers a fresh perspective on landscape and portrait painting, infused with modern themes and innovative techniques. Their pieces are not only visually striking but also thought-provoking, inviting viewers to contemplate the intersections of art, technology, and society.
