Juergen Wolf

🔳Juergen Wolf (born 1958) is a German artist. 

Wolf’s work takes an ironic look at icons, taboos and the menaces of the civilized world, moments of luck, of sadness, impressions of historical and political reality, sporting events and fragments of mental abyss.

These painted stories are compiled from all walks of human experience, assembled without hierarchy and thus grant a special importance to each singular moment.

Clichés from past decades are standing beside still lives, sweet, idyllic moments mix with absurd and elegant interiors.

The works continuously cast doubt on the absolute terms of an idealistic philosophy: the good, true and beautiful. Wolf’s work refers to idealism, German romanticism, and questions the essence of beauty itself.
