Johannes Kahrs takes a photo, a video projection or a film still as the starting point of his drawings and oil paintings. He catches fragments of images of politics, show biz, and advertising to reform, re-interpret, and further fictionalise the represented idea by shifting tones and gradations of grey and black pastel, leaving contours blurred. As he experiments with the original from of the image, he detaches the picture from its original meaning. Hence, he finishes with an almost unrecognisable representation and completely new recording of reality. The work of Johannes Kahrs is suggestive and impressive, yet particularly ghostly and mysterious.
With its introductory text by Ralph Rugoff, this book provides the first comprehensive survey of Johannes Kahrs's oeuvre and also includes his most recent works.

Berlin-based Johannes Kahrs paints suggestive, ghostly forms in shifting tones and gradations of grey and black pastel, leaving contours blurred. Detached from their original context, almost unrecognizable representational fragments emerge. With introductory text by Ralph Rugoff, director of London's Hayward Gallery, this volume provides the first comprehensive survey of Kahrs' oeuvre.

1. Aufl. Johannes Kahrs (*1965 in Bremen) gehört zu den bemerkenswertesten Protagonisten der deutschen Gegenwartskunst. Der in Berlin lebende Künstler arbeitet mit den klassischen Medien Zeichnung und Ölmalerei ebenso wie mit Video-, Ton- und skulpturalen Installationen, die er in seinen Ausstellungen oft kombiniert. Für seine Arbeiten verwendet er gefundenes Material Bilder aus Politik, Showbusiness und Werbung , löst es aus seinem ursprünglichen Zusammenhang und überträgt es in eine gänzlich neue Realität. Durch die Konzentration auf Bilddetails wird das Vertraute fremd und es entstehen verstörende Werke . (Sehr gut erhalten - neuwertig / in very good condition - as new) Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 1300 OLeinen mit Schutzumschlag / Hardcover (cloth, with dust-jacket).
