Daniel Raedeke

Daniel Raedeke (born 1970) is a St. Louis-based painter who makes brightly colored, layered paintings that borrow from animation, screens and interface design. His series Outside (2025) turns birds, flowers and habitats into flat, poster-like images. It starts from a childhood school assignment to make collages of local birds and flowers and considers how nature looks when it is met mostly through a screen.

Raedeke works mainly in acrylic, enamel and resin on canvas, panel and MDF, and his work often moves between painting and sculpture: cast layers of latex paint, two-sided paintings set into freestanding stands, and painted MDF structures that read as both objects and images. He has compared his process to hand-painted cel animation, painting on plastic, transferring thin layers of paint onto canvas and adding painted drop shadows to suggest depth. The small square paintings in Playlist (2021) resemble screens and mix digital imaging with hand-painted abstraction.

Raedeke received an MFA from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville in 2000.

Raedeke teaches art in the public schools; in 2021 Ladue News reported that he taught painting and animation at Ladue Horton Watkins High School. In 2008 he curated the exhibition New Paintings: IL + MO at the Edwardsville Arts Center in Illinois.

His solo exhibitions include Painting a Better Future for You at Byron Roche Gallery in Chicago and Kroma in St. Louis (2003), Always Almost New at Laumeier Sculpture Park (2004) and Always Almost Obsolete at the Granite City Art and Design District in Illinois (2018). He has taken part in group exhibitions at the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, White Flag Projects, the Daum Museum of Contemporary Art in Sedalia, Missouri, and the Ontario College of Art and Design in Toronto, and his work has been reviewed in Art in America and Art Papers. Raedeke has shown with Bruno David Gallery since its inaugural St. Louis exhibition in 2005. Outside (2026) was his sixth solo exhibition there, following Magasin (2006), New Paintings (2013), Naturebook (2016), Adventure (2019) and Playlist (2021–22); the gallery has published a catalogue for each.
