Biography:
Michael Schwab (b. 1966) is a London-based German artist and researcher, who has had exhibitions both in the UK and abroad. Originally a photographer, his work breaches narrow definitions of media as he focuses on post-conceptual uses of technology. Apart from photography, he employs drawing, installation art, painting and printmaking to produce his work that is often conceptually developed on the computer. Examples of his drawings can be seen on the RCA's Research Through Drawing Picture Archive.
He studied philosophy at the University of Hamburg from where he received the equivalent of a Masters degree for his work on modern continental philosophy and the crisis of metaphysics. Later, he completed an MA in Photography at the London College of Printing with distinction.
