Ulf Meyer studied at the „Freie Kunststudienstätte Ottersberg” and at the Academy of Arts in Bremen; art award by the district of Verden; lives and works as a freelance artist and illustrator near Bremen, Germany.

About my work

My methodical-didactical approaches vary from accompanying interaction in group work to work analysis and reflection of the developing artistic work of the students in group sessions and individual talks.

Traditional as much as current artistic positions provide the starting point for debates over contemporary art.
