Spiegelungen der Architektur 2023 (2017) Photography by Michael Schultes

Born in Landshut an der Isar in 1954, Michael Schultes turned his back on his Bavarian homeland in his early childhood. Based on his father's profession, a scientist and veterinarian, an odyssey through several German cities followed. The student initially found a fixed point of rest and reference in painting.

Inspired by the pictures created with oil and acrylic paints, he began to deal with artistic photography. For him, photos are not just a representation of a real situation or an area, they are rather a working surface and an opportunity for implementation at the same time for the creation of a unique picture. At the end of the 1970s, Schultes completed his training as a commercial photographer in Wiesbaden. Since 1979 he has been working as a freelance photographer in the advertising and artistic fields.

For several years he has been passing on his knowledge on photo trips and workshops. Michael Schultes now lives and works in Hadamar.
