Tillman Kaiser

Born in Graz and living in Vienna, Austria, Tillman Kaiser pulls from Dada, Surrealism and Constructivism in the development of his work.  Kaiser moves with ease between 2D and 3D, using a purposefully understated pallette, architectonic structuring, as well as found and ready-made objects, to create work that is both formalist and conceptually surprising.
