Fabian Treiber (b. 1986, Ludwigsburg Germany) is an artist based in Stuttgart, Germany. He studied fine art at the Stuttgart State Academy of Art and Design. The artist has dedicated himself formally speaking to the subject of the interior in his paintings, using it to question subjective projections and our perception of reality. Treiber particulary makes decisions in his paintings formally and not narratively. In so doing, he provokes a conscious break, thus declaring what is supposedly false as the very quality of painting, with the effect that his works somehow might seem not quite right, but are just right.
