Jan Dörre is a German painter known for his still lifes in the modern vanitas style.
He studied painting at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig, lives and works in Leipzig.
Jan Dörre paints still lifes, which are directly associated with the paintings of the old masters of the 17th century. The artist in his works repeats in different variations the familiar set of motifs found in baroque still lifes of vanitas: bread, cutlery, fruit, insects, birds, snakes, lizards, books, letters, skull, etc. But next to them in a modern setting he places objects of our time, for example, pills and empty packages from them. All this together conveys the general idea of the genre: a reminder of the transience of life, the futility of pleasure and the inevitability of death.
