Artist Crush: Stefan Peters

Monday, August 18, 2014 · No Comments

Stefan Peters is a painter of unusual circular landscapes which, according to critic Hans Op de Beeck, reference “the photographic lens, an old pair of binoculars, or a peephole in a door”.

“Peters first sets out to find source material of photographic landscape images from all over the world through Google Earth on the Internet, to then subsequently reinterpret and manipulate them through painting. By introducing artificial optical effects in his painted images… Peters creates from simple photographic images of nature actual dioramas such as we know them from old natural history museums.” – Hans Op de Beeck
