Kevin Krautgartner (born 1988) is a German architectural and landscape photographer, best known for his aerial images of urban and large ground spaces highlighting the aesthetic value of colors, lines and geometric patterns in them.[1] His oeuvre has been awarded at international contests, and featured in mainstream media.[2][3]

Life and work

[edit]

Krautgartner was born in 1988 in Schwelm, Germany and currently lives and works in Wuppertal.[4]

He graduated from the Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts with a degree in photography and graphic design. Digital photography is the basis for his work today. He uses helicopters and light planes to capture his objects -architectural interiors, urban skylines, remote landscapes- from different perspectives which he later uses to digitally select and frame aesthetically appealing views. His landscapes include icy mountains, volcanoes, glaciers, fjords and salt fields in many countries.

Krautgartner's work has been used in NatGeo,[5] Der Spiegel,[2] Colossal,[3] The Mirror,[6] Novosti,[7] FAZ,[8] Die Welt and [9] WDR,[10] and Yahoo! News,[11] which annotated his images as being evocative of abstract masterpieces.
