Jannis Uffrecht

  • About

Jannis Uffrecht (*1991) is a German artist and Art and Design student studying under Björn Dahlem and Hermann Stamm at Bauhaus University Weimar, Germany. In summer 2017, he was granted an exchange to study multimedia art and sculpture at Belas-Artes in Lisbon, Portugal. In 2018 Uffrecht was selected for the artist residency Studio Vortex by Antoine d'Agata in Arles, France. Last year he was an official photographer for Bauhaus 100, the centenary programme of the Bauhaus and its legacy from past to present.


»Experience gives way to understanding. The desire to get to the essence of things leads him to elevate objects, surfaces and content to a level free of context, to then release them into new dialogs of interpretation. Impulsiveness is both a contradiction and instrument of his structured, almost manic work method.« — Vera Heinemann
