Daniel Bahrmann, born in Radebeul near Dresden in 1975, lives in Meissen with his family. He works as a freelance artist, cultural manager and photographer.
He graduated HbK Braunschweig 2003 with a diploma in Fine Arts. As an artist, he experiments with the graphic aspects of photography and searches for the photographic ideal picture. He actively contributes to many other art projects.
Daniel Bahrmann’s artistic approach to photography emphasizes the graphic aspects of his subjects. He wants to draw attention to photography as an artistic medium through abstraction and condensation. A new visualization with experimental photography that plays and works only with light, color and shape.
The focus of his other photographic works is on documentation, townscape and landscape photography. He was president of Kunstverein Meissen e.V. from 2006 to 2018 and reinstated the Meissner Grafikmarkt in 2007. As president of Meissener Kulturverein e.V. he has organized the Literaturfest Meissen since 2009.
During the Corona crisis and lockdown in spring 2020, he received the “Denkzeit” grant through Saxony’s Kulturstiftung. This program encourages artists to continue working on their art and develop individual approaches even in difficult times. Daniel Bahrmann used this support to work intensely on new pictures and modes of expression.
In 2020, he received Stadt Meissen’s Kunst- und Kulturpreis.
