Günther Reger was born in the region of Baden-Württemberg in 1951; during the early days of the rebellious seventies he studied in Berlin at the Academy of Fine Arts, going onto new areas of fine art as well as the field of experimental music.

Today, in the present artistic work, his creative progress anticipates new steps towards the language of images and music.
Amid the general development in art, Günther Regers artistic work visibly reveals his own individual ambitions. His studio in Küpfendorf denote many things simultaneously: an atelier for light and music, a colour-laboratory and sort of a theatre for the staging of images. Part of his work is subject to changes, growing into components of gradual processes which will be witnessed through the colour of the image: modern colour-pigments which are seldom used in painting constitute the basis; in a dark-room, they are altered by artifical light and daylight in accordance with carefully fixed timing. The light is the intrinsic prerequisite for colours and their changes – for the process of the image – thus capturing its characteristic value.
To this day and after earlier attempts, Günther Regers important working-groups and installations are aiming to create worlds of perception, time and remembrance, by the means of the language of art.

Günther Regers music career started with the Release music orchestra in Hamburg. The Rock-Jazz formation played at festivals like Montreux 1979. Followed by music performances with Kraan, Tavil and Accoustic on tour with the Goethe Institute at Turkey and on the West African continent.
2 CD´s of Acoustic and Tavil are produced by Selected Sound.

2005 on tour with Hubert Stytz as support of Willy de Ville in Germany.

In different formations Günther Reger worked with experimental music and images. At the EXPO 2000 Hannover he realized an interactive Light Dome called “Light composition 2000 MIX ADAT”. More at www.n-log.de
