«Kunst Kaffee Kuchen» with Armin Andreas Pangerl

Armin Andreas Pangerl has been painting abstract works as a self-taught artist since childhood, and has also been working conceptually since 2013. His works encompass a controversial universe of ideas and transitions in visual expression, and frequently incorporate text passages and associations. Sometimes these images are filled with text and crosses. Music is another driving force behind his artistic work. Over the course of his career, his works have been included in various collections, including the Prinzhorn Collection, the Friends of the Willy Brandt House Berlin, the Henry Boxer Gallery, the Peter Bolliger Collection, the Dammann Collection, the Turhan Demirel Collection, the Eckhard Busch Collection and the Dominique Peloux-Raynal Collection.

Armin Andreas Pangerl was born in Bayreuth in 1965 and grew up in Lörrach and Lahr with three brothers. After leaving secondary school, he worked as a concrete worker in Mannheim. In 1988, he began his military service, during which he experienced his first psychotic episode and was admitted to the Bundeswehr hospital in Gießen. In 1989, a second psychotic episode followed, leading to a stay at the Ottenhöfen Psychosomatic Clinic, which marked the beginning of his artistic work. From 1989 to 2000, Armin Andreas Pangerl worked in security, whilst attending evening school and beginning to study art history, history and mathematics, until he had to discontinue his studies in 1996 due to testicular cancer. From 1996 onwards, he worked as a freelance artist and author. In 2003, Pangerl completed vocational training as a media designer and founded the artists’ collective “Das Atelier Lahr” in 2004. In 2008, he was diagnosed with oesophageal cancer. Further stays in psychiatric clinics followed. He ceased his artistic work entirely until 2013, when he developed a desire to create diary pages.
