Through his initial professional training in metal work, he acquired an eye and a sensitivity to physical materials, substance and matter. In 1985 Andreas Rickenbacher began to work in painting, after having studied at the school of design in Basel.
His realistic technical precision is inspired by the realism and the classical still life paintings of the 17 – 19th centuries, which have always fascinated Rickenbacher. He executes his works by reproducing his photographs or sketches onto the large format canvasses and so these realistic works replete with material come into being. “The composition is always the focus of my works. To reproduce exactly, without compromise, fascinates me and is a great challenge to my craftsmanship and creativity.” (Andreas Rickenbacher)
