In "Art de Fact" I explore the zeitgeist — from the fading weight of facts and the rise of affect over reason to a "new prudishness" bordering on censorship and the increasing digitization of life. Using experimental, photography-based montages and collages that blend reality with alternate fragments, I craft each piece digitally, without generating any image components using artificial intelligence.
Andreas Kremer, living in Cologne/Germany, began his artistic path after he had worked successfully in business for many years. Never losing touch with photography during the years, 2014 he changed his focus completely to photography as visual art, and hasn’t put down his camera since. In 2019, he published his first photobook Tension with Kerber Verlag. His series The Last Resort (2020–2024) and Art de Fact (since 2024) have received international attention. After participating in an expedition he celebrates the raw beauty of the Arctic in his current series Arctic Silence.
