Olivier Kugler was born in 1970 in Stuttgart, Germany. He grew up in Simmozheim, a small village, in the Black Forest. Influenced by French/Belgian bande desinées and Otto Dix. Olivier studied graphic design in Pforzheim (Germany).
Oliviers work is simplistic and uses minimal amounts of detail. He sometimes plays with the perspective and mixes the foreground and background.
His use of block colours makes the images look cartoon like as there is no shading there to make them appear 3D.
I prefer this piece of his work to many others as it is simple and it is easy to tell images apart. In many of his other images his work is rather messy and it is quite difficult to see what the main aim of his work is. The colours he uses in his work are a bit unrealistic as they are block and have no variation within the image. I like his work as it shows that simple can sometimes be better than complicated. however some of his work can be intricate.
