Lars Käker

The two-part exhibition Lars Käker – Ein Grenzgänger des Porträts on the island Fehmarn shows photorealistic portraits by Cologne-based painter Lars Käker. Käker was born on Fehmarn. His oil paintings are definite-figurative; not merely picturing the human object, he always plays a visual game with inner and outer perception, shining a light on socially marginalized individuals, making statements both critical and ironic-bizarre about today’s society.

Part auf the exhibition are works from the series „Müllwerk“, „portraits_2null“, „Das Graue Quadrat“, „Draußen 2.0“ and „Boxer XXL“, and as Work in Progress an artistical examination of Ernst Ludwig Kirchner’s painting „Ins Meer Schreitende“.
