Johan Zetterquist
How do you describe an artist who defines his work as being somewhere “between impossible to describe and conceptual”, who rejects the category of the unnatural, and maintains that evolution cannot be held in check? The individualist Johann Zetterquist is definitely not an aesthetic privateer. The sketches he is showing at the Künstlerhaus are “proposals […]
Attila Szücs
Attila Szücs’ painting always has something dreamlike about it. The objects and scenes depicted may appear vaguely familiar to the viewer, he may feel he has already experienced the unspectacular scenes – but they open a speculative sphere to the imagination: Szücs’ pictures evoke the history of painting in order to place it – with […]

Karl Hans Janke
“Manic inventing”? Karl Hans Janke’s life was a struggle against the consequences of this medical diagnosis. More than 2500 drawings document his inventions of atomic propulsion models, domestic lamps that collect steric energy, and spaceships that fly without the need for energy at all. Janke did not want to be an artist, and he plagued […]
