Born in Lübbecke, Germany, in 1958, Thomas Jessen has long been one of the most renowned German painters. From 1980 to 1986 he studied at the art academy in Düsseldorf. There he was a student of Gerhard Richter and then a master student of Alfonso Hüppi. A scholarship from the state of NRW brought him to the Cité des Arts in Paris in 1986.

Thomas Jessen is a gifted portraitist and a sensitive flower and landscape painter. The stained glass paintings in various sacred spaces connect him once again with Gerhard Richter. Photography holds him under its spell and he links this with painting, bringing both together in one work, and the viewer has the task of recognizing the respective origin. His painting in the most magnificent colors embodies pure life for him and therefore usually triumphs over photography.
