Joachim Sauter

After graduating from the academy of fine arts in Berlin, Joachim Sauter studied at the ‘German Academy for Film and Television’, Berlin.

Since the early 1980s, he has been working as a media artist and designer. From the beginning, Joachim Sauter has focussed on digital technogies and is experimenting how they can be used to express content, form, and narration.

Fuelled by this interest, he founded ART+COM in 1988 together with other artists, designers, scientists, and technologists. Their goal was to practically research this new up-and-coming medium in the realm of art and design. Until now, he is leading this interdisciplinary group.
