Christian Ringleb, born 1971, lives and works in Munich-Germany as a visual artist with his own studio. The artistic spark in his life came from the emerging European hip-hop culture of the 80’s and the associated graffiti writing scene. The principles of that scene, which were isolated from the classic art establishment, as well as the foregoing of an intellectual classification of his own work, affected Ringleb’s attitude towards painting as a free form of expression. Liberated from many formalities, the pretense remains, that good art must burn and does not require explanation.
Following a year of full-time training in figural and still life with a painter in Munich came the academic course of studies in communication design at the University of Applied Sciences in Augsburg and instrumental experiences in free painting classes. The first working years thereafter were shaped by commissions in the area of applied art and illustration. The end of the 90’s marked the final return to free painting and a separation of the commercial work as a freelance designer from that as freelance artist.
