Mas amor por favor-CutOut

€1.550,00 inc. VAT

Dating Apps suggest that they will find us a partner for life, true love and thus an exit from our lonely existence. We are looking and finding, we are matches and we collect these short moments of self-confidence. Maybe it is a small boost to be so popular but it is over too quickly - we need the next high and the illusion to only be able to be happy together.

A smaller and simpler version can be found here. Details:

Luther – CutOut

€1.300,00 inc. VAT

500 years since Martin Luther nailed a poster on a church door in East Germany. But it is also important to remember some other words he muttered in his many books. In “On the Jews an their lies” he demands to burn the synagogues and houses of Jews. About the peasants and their revolt against the (feudal) hierarchy he said they deserve death of body and soul as any hierarchy is god-given, described in is book “Against the Murderous, Thieving Hordes of Peasants“.

In this motive, Luther is shown blind-folded as a metaphor for his antisemitism and his views on the peasents’ struggle for more freedom. The symbolism is taken from the antisemitic depiction of the syonagoga (the female personification of Judaism) on medieval churches. There, she is always shown blindfolded to symbolise that Jews never would recognize Jesus Christ as their messiah.
