Marie Athenstaedt

Marie Athenstaedt (born in 1988 in Dresden) is a graduate of the HfBk Dresden and studied under Prof. Christian Macketanz until 2014.

For her paintings, Athenstaedt takes nature as her model. Her large-format paintings are only superficially non-objective and abstract. The artist transfers sky formations, light and natural phenomena, and the colours of her surroundings into an expressive, dreamlike painting that almost immerses the viewer in the pictures.

Marie Athenstaedt received a scholarship from the Kulturstiftung des Freistaates Sachsen, Baumwollspinnerei, Leipzig, in 2017 and a Hegenbarth scholarship in 2015. She lives and works in Leipzig.
