| Synopsis: |
This is a superbly illustrated exploration of the latest work from renowned artist Johannes Steidl. What is it about ravens that have so captivated Johannes Steidl? How come they flap their wings so vigorously while at the same time radiating an almost contemplative calm? Ravens have always been firmly established in the fairytales and myths of all people. In the Edda they are called Hugin and Munin and sit on the shoulder of the one-eyed Wotan. Steidl's birds also circle close to man, yet his pictures seem devoid of anything human. Johannes Steidl's work is indebted to enlightenment, not apotheosis. It is more disenchanting than enchanting. But even those for whom a solitary line or a dense area of colour allegedly no longer suffices, will immediately be captivated by the forceful self-sufficiency Steidl's work. |
