AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An extraordinary color aquatint by Jonathan Meese from 2006.
Signed in pencil bottom right.
The work was printed on high-quality hand-made paper for sheets.
About the work:
It shows a complex, multi-layered composition in which fine black and ochre lines cross and overlap. Figurative elements, body shapes, symbols and text fragments merge into a dynamic, almost enigmatic pictorial world.
Typical for Jonathan Meese is the combination of recognizable motifs with a free, almost associative way of drawing. Particularly striking are the two bold diagonal lines that run through the depiction and give the multifaceted composition visual coherence.
In between, various figures and fragments appear, including cross motifs and the handwritten text "HAGEN VON TRONJE’S AUGENLICHT".
The restrained use of ochre tones forms an exciting contrast to the black lines. Despite the abundance of figures, signs and structures, the aquatint remains surprisingly light and transparent as a result. A characteristic graphic work by Jonathan Meese from 2006, in which figuration, text, symbolism and expressive line work come together in an unmistakable way.
Framing:
The work is professionally and high-quality framed in an exclusive Swiss hand-made Plexiglas showcase.
Plexiglas showcase dimensions: approximately 77 × 59 cm.
About the artist:
Jonathan Meese (born 1970 in Tokyo) is a German contemporary artist who works with painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, performance and large-scale installations. His oeuvre is characterized by a provocative, theatrical and highly personal visual language, in which historical figures, mythology, pop culture, fictitious characters, symbols and self-invented terms constantly merge with one another.
Meese is among the prominent positions in German contemporary art. In 2006, the same year this aquatint was created, Deichtorhallen Hamburg presented an exhibition of Jonathan Meese in the Hall for Contemporary Art. His work is also prominently represented in the Falckenberg collection, where extensive installations by the artist are shown.
