Susanne Kühn

Susanne Kühn is known internationally as an outstanding protagonist of figurative painting. In her invented, extremely contemporaryseeming pictorial worlds, she combines the precision of the old masters with elements from comics and fantasy. In addition to painting, Susanne Kühn has also always occupied herself with drawing.
In her most recently created large-format drawings, she radically renounces any use of color. The reduction to black and white simultaneously signifies an opening up to new pictorial possibilities and themes: dealing with questions relating to the medium, identity, and artistic self-image. This publication with an interview with the artist and an introductory text offers extensive insights into the Susanne Kühn’s drawing work.
