Original Signed Artworks & Limited Edition Prints For Sale

Renowned for his anarchic installations, performances and paintings, Jonathan Meese’s work is, by his own account, a reaction to the ‘dictatorship of art’ - focusing on themes of identity, power and revolution, Meese often portrays his own likeness and explains “I exhume to consume”.

« Love, lusciousness, birth and fertility are precise tools of art,
like laws. »
Jonathan Meese

Limited Edition Print - Lithograph

EUR 750

Many of Meese’s exhibitions are of a multi-media nature;

« Art is about necessity, not about human will. Society is more and more brainwashed and mistakes itself for art. »
Jonathan Meese

HOT EARL GREEN SAUSAGE TEA BARBIE (FIRST FLUSH) is one of his most acclaimed exhibitions and features a chaotic blend of paintings and prints, grotesque and hellish depictions of human figures cast in bronze, magazine photo collages and large-scale installations that result in an overwhelming socio-political commentary.

What is body art?

Body art involves creating art directly on or with the human body. Common forms include body piercings and tattoos, but it also encompasses practices like branding, scarification, scalping, body painting, full-body tattoos, body shaping, and sub-dermal implants. Body art can also refer to a subcategory of performance art where the artist's body is central to the artwork.
