Klaus Fruchtnis is a photographer, digital artist and lecturer. He has a degree in visual arts from Rennes and a master in Arts and Digital Media from the Sorbonne. His research is based on the areas of photography, multimedia, digital drawing and media experimentation and is related to the word “space”, and it has been characterized by its itinerary and its way of evolution over the last years. He questions the image, its origin and its incidence in the current art world, through new technologies and different ways of perceiving art, as well as how they influence our daily life.[1] In November, 2014, he was named Photography Chair of the Paris College of Art[2].
