Fynn Ribbeck from Lennep: New star in the art cosmos with 30,000 euros scholarship!
fynn Ribbeck, 29 years old and born in Lennep, recently has the coveted peter-jacobi-scheduled, received that is endowed with 30,000 euros. Ribbeck is recognized for his innovative approach in contemporary art. This honor was given to him under more than 500 applications, which further emphasizes his services.
The jury, whose members also includes Peter Jacobi, recognized Ribbeck as an emerging artist. She praised his ability to exceed media and content limits and reinterpret visual narrative. Ribbeck combines digital image processing with physical sculptures in his work and is known for the use of techniques such as motion capture, AI-based image generation, CNC milling and tin cast.
innovative way of working and future projects
Ribbeck plans to be supported in its creative processes for a year as part of the scholarship. An exhibition in Pforzheim is also planned, which is funded by the cultural office at 10,000 euros. This exhibition will be a significant step in his career.
His work often uses historical elements, especially from the time of the RAF, which gives his video work a deep dimension. Ribbeck also said that he has a persistent interest in the connections between reality and fiction.
recognition and academic connections
The jury, chaired by art critic Michael Hübl, described Ribbeck as a "young star" with impressive skills in the sculptor. Ribbeck studied at the Düsseldorf art academy and the art college for media in Cologne and currently lives and works predominantly in Cologne and Düsseldorf. It is planned to integrate him into teaching at the Faculty of Design of the Pforzheim University.
The Peter Jacobi Foundation, which Ribbeck awarded the scholarship, was founded in 2018 to promote artists and designers in their development. Peter Jacobi, who has over 50 years of experience in sculpture and interior design and was a professor at the University of Design from 1971 to 1998, is decisive in initiating this support.
With a view to his future, Ribbeck has ambitious plans. Future projects could include a longer film with actresses and motion capture techniques. He also shows great interest in animation -theoretical studies abroad, possibly in Japan or America.
