EDUCATION
At the age of six Remus already won some art competitions. From that point on he continued painting until he moved from Germany to the United States, where he attended School for Creative and Performing Arts , a high-school specializing in the arts. He majored in painting and graduated in the late 80s.
Shortly after, Remus studied Japanese at the University of Frankfurt in Germany. He moved to Japan in the early 90s, allowing him to pursue his passion of Asian art. This influenced remained part of him for years. Many of his early works show Asian characteristics.
Remus formal art studies began in the mid-90s at the prestigious Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, California (BA, Fine Art) where he acquired his traditional studio foundations.
After graduation, Remus moved to Honduras to study the indigenous cultures of Mesoamerica, allowing him to blend his knowledge of Asian art with formal Western art styles and combining it with the art of Latin America. The result of this is a unique series of Mexico, including so-called "Catrinas," symbols of the "Day of the Dead."
Today Remus continues to surprise the art world by coming up with new painting styles that are unlike his usual work. The new series "Fossils" displays abstracted threedimensional reliefs, moving away from the Asian and Latin American art styles that favor line and pattern.
