Manfred Rautenberg

My name is Manfred Rautenberg, born in 1947 on the German North Sea coast. I create my maritime works from a deep connection to the coastal landscape and from my own impressions. With my works, I try to convey contemplative tranquility. Coastal forms appear as poetic interstitial spaces, characterized by reduction, vastness, and meditative stillness.

Having trained as a graduate engineer in the 1970s, my artistic career is rooted in the precision of technical disciplines. The combination of artistic vision and technological openness lends my work a distinctive character.

I use AI as a highly sophisticated design tool – similar to complex technical systems. Each work originates from a rigorous conceptual framework, which I fill with finely tuned design, curation, and post-processing steps.

Education: Diploma in Engineering, Technical University of Braunschweig, 1975.
