Tim Breuer

Tim Breuer (b. 1990, Aachen, Germany) is a painter who lives and works in Berlin. He studied at The Royal College of Art in London 2017-2019, and was a student of Peter Doig at the Kunstakademie in Dusseldorf between 2011 - 2017. His paintings depict figures in domestic and shared social spaces, built through a process of repeated layering and scraping back of paint, in which traces of the initial drawing remain visible beneath subsequent passages. The surfaces accumulate through addition, erasure, and subtraction across dense, at times aquatic palettes that tend toward muted and subdued tonalities.

His work has been shown in a two-person exhibition at TRAMPS Gallery in London, alongside Satoshi Kojima; in a solo exhibition at Champ Lacombe in Biarritz (2022), with a further solo there in 2024; and in the group exhibition Wild Dogs at Michael Werner Gallery. He participated in a group exhibition at the Fondation Carmignac on the Île de Porquerolles (2023) and was presented at Paris Internationale in October 2024 in a joint presentation by Champ Lacombe and TRAMPS.
