Niemeyer also realized sculptural objects and big scale projects such as the land art "20 steps around the world".
His mother was a textile designer and worked in Saabrücken at the former State School for Art and Crafts, where she was in charge of a handloom weaving factory.
In Finland, he met artist colleagues Lars-Gunnar Nordstrom and Matti Kujasalo, the former director of the Finnish Academy of Art in Helsinki.
Edition Partanen collaborated with artists such as Rupprecht Geiger, Matti Kujasalo, Ilya Bolotowsky and Niemeyer himself.
Niemeyer began to elaborate his big scale project "20 steps around the world" which would be installed in 1997 in the City of Ropinsalmi in Finland.
In the context of this work, an arbitrarily defined route around the Earth is divided systematically and exactly into 20 segments which develop to a dynamic, logarithmic progression according to the 'Golden Section'.
Over the years, Niemeyer has held successful one-man and group shows in Scandinavia, Italy, Switzerland, Israel, USA, England, Japan, Argentina, and Finland.
The images of snow, clouds and light-situations gave him the desire to study structure, space, movement and time.
His artistic production, fundamentally based on natural principals and measures, is nothing more than a sequence of experimental steps which implies given and objective criteria and subjective factors in the same way.
