HANS JÖRG JOOST (B. 1968) DILEMA, 2023, Acrylic on canvas. Signed, titled and dated on back H 43 x W 43 cm Hans' work revolves around an intense dialogue with minimalism and the joy of color. The superimposition of tones creates a play with transparency, acidic tones, light and depth of field, while emphasizing the materiality of the medium. The artist appeals to the viewer's visual and emotional response. "Moreover my painting is a kind of homage to Jean Paul Sartre and his idea of existentialism, which has had a great influence on my approach to the world and my understanding of human behavior." He's part of a German scene that's well worth keeping an eye on. His unique style attracts contemporary art collectors and guarantees his long-term success.
