“The first
stroke on
the paper
requires a
courageous
hand.“
Daniel Pannrucker was born on 13.07.1977 in Luxembourg. His primary school teacher wrote: “Daniel is a loner with surprising creativity and a lot of ambition. With his inimitable and sensitive way, he wins everyone for himself. “– That still applies to him today.
He sought the unusual ways. Not always to the joy of his parents. Instead of enjoying a “sensible education”, he graduated with a diploma in Art in Luxembourg and then started a degree in visual communication and advertising at the Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels.
