The 2019 Reclaim Award was curated by:

Tim Berresheim

Artist

Born in 1975 in Heinsberg, Germany, is one of the most important protagonists of the contemporary art of computer generated imagery. The artist and musician lives and works in Aachen where he also manages a music label and a project space. Since 2002 he creates panel pictures on a computer. 
Ever since the second half of the zero years, the aspect of multidimensionality has gained significance for Berresheim. The readability of a picture is constantly being modified and therefore the idea of the final view on a central perspective keeps being questioned. 
Berresheim has last exhibited at the Aachener Kunstverein, the Art Space Riehen and at the Belmacz gallery in London.
