Animalistic Postmodern
Sebastian Gögel
Sonneberg 1978
Sebastian Gögel is a German painter and sculptor living and working in Leipzig.
Gögel graduated from the University of Graphic and Book Arts in Leipzig and has been working with Paul Hammer (1975) in the HAGEL project since 2005. Extremely diverse in his work, working methods, themes and concerns, Gögel fits into a unique tradition of German erudite conceptual artists. Through exaggerations, caricatures, and grotesques, Gögel simultaneously utilizes and refutes morality and representationalism. The artist's surrealistic paintings and highly varied styles are appealing and horrifying at the same time.
