According to Roberta Smith, Scheibitz paintings and sculptures “violate the borders between abstraction and representation, painting and sculpture, art and other visual culture. …His sculptures resemble architectural models or fragments of logos; his paintings are vaguely figurative. Both seem derived from some outside source, and display a flexible faith in form’s infinite allusiveness and consequent ability to inspire free-form reverie.” (New York Times, Art in Review, June 23, 2006)

Thomas Scheibitz was born in 1968 in Radeberg, Germany. He received his MFA in 1998 from the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts, where he studied under Professor Ralf Kerbach. Scheibitz currently lives and works in Berlin.
