Collection: MARCO REICHERT

Born in Berlin in 1979, Marco Reichert studied information technology before completing his art studies at the Weißensee Academy of Art. Both fields remain present in a practice that moves between traditional painting, digital image production and experimental materials.

Reichert develops and programs machines that draw across surfaces he has already worked by hand. He is interested in the moment when a seemingly flawless system slips out of balance. Irregular lines, interruptions and technical errors make the limits of control visible and give the mechanical process an organic quality. Recent works extend this approach through silver nitrate, ink, oil and reflective surfaces that continue to change through their material reactions.

Circle Culture has presented Reichert’s work since 2018 through several solo exhibitions in Berlin and Hamburg. His work remains grounded in the tension between precision, failure and painterly intuition.
