Detlef B Fischer

I was born and i raised up in Western Germany. Since my young years i liked to draw, paint and photograph. I photographed in black and white mostly and had my own little Laboratory in the bathroom.
Beside of creating Arts i wrote more than 10 books in my Life. Books about history and books about asian Religion, especially Buddhism. In the year 1980 i got ordinary as a buddhist Monk from a japanese Zen-Master. My Monk-Name is "Sojo". One of my Books is named "Das Tao der Kunst".
In the year 2022 i took the decision to change my life completely and I fly to the Philippines and live there since that time. My life in germany was good and save, but i felt, that i needed new insprirations and new challenges. Now. two years later, i can say, that it was a good desicion. I found a lot of inspirations for my photography and artworks and i hope that you enjoy to see it.

In the years 1973 until 1978 I studied Design at the Highschools for Design of Düsseldorf and Münster. Then I went to the Kunstakademie Münster to study Art. My teacher was Prof. Gunther Keusen in this time.

After the Time at the Kunstakademie i was part of different Exhibitions with other former Students of the Academy. In 1990 i had a Solo-Exhibition in the Stadtmuseum Münster with photographs.
