Jonathan Meese, mixed media on canvas, 2008
Both verbally and non-verbally, Jonathan Meese creates an artistic chaos, drawing attention with explicit symbols and word usage. A diversity of social and political issues are used as subjects, though never in a literal sense. Any kind of aesthetics is reprehensible and the provocative scream is what counts in his work. With a lot of irony he ridicules practically every ideology this world has known, but the only true ideology for him is the power of art.
