Sebastian Krüger's work deals with the "apparatus of media presentation and the manic iconography" of contemporary culture. Thus, his paintings tend to be "both hyper-realistic in detail, yet also amusingly grotesque in their distortion."
Here we have perhaps the most iconic rock and roll band in history, The Rolling Stones, as children.
Sebastian Krüger's subjects are generally artists he admires and his portraits, while caricatures, always contain a great deal of kindness while at the same time thoroughly subverting "the world of beautiful appearances." This contradiction is at the heart of Krüger's work, a characteristic that has made him extremely popular with art connoisseurs all over the world.
Each piece is signed and numbered by Sebastian Kruger.
