ANTON HENNING

Anton Henning moves away from common art trends and expectations. In his subversive march through art history, he repeatedly combines an abstract, ornamental formal language with figurative motifs, places avantgarde and design, trash and salon art in a dialectical relationship.

NOH SUNTAG

South Korean NOH Suntag's photographs maintain a careful balance between political statement and artistic aesthetic. NOH is interested in the ambivalences and fractures within and between the two Korean societies.

PHILIP TAAFFE

The New York-based painter Philip Taaffe makes use of various ethnic motifs. His postmodern access to already existing forms, however, is only the external approach to a decorative ornamentation. His works are a critical-reflexive examination of abstraction.

YOUSSEF NABIL

Numerous artists, but also celebrities from the world of film, music and literature posed for the camera of Youssef Nabil.
