Christian Jankowski
Christian Jankowski is a multi-media artist working in video, photography, performance and literature.
Combining different mediums to blur the borders between fiction and reality, private and public,
Jankowski's work gently disarms his audience, subverting expectations and entertaining at the same time.
After his initial exposition at the Venice Biennale which showed Telemistica in 1999, Jankowski has kept
a busy exhibition schedule including several solo shows.
With Telemistica, the production of the piece is its content when Jankowski speaks live on the phone with
television psychics, questioning them about the success of his forthcoming artwork which they invariably
affirm and which is being produced as he films the show. 16mm Mystery - a collaborative effort with the
special effects team The Brothers Strause - shows the artist setting up a projector on the roof of a building
with the Los Angeles skyline in the background. As soon as the projected film begins, it effects the collapse of a building in the background. Then, without revealing the content of the film, Jankowski casually
returns to pack up the equipment and walks away.
Jankowski lives and works in Berlin and New York and holds a sculpture professorship in Stuttgart. His work has been featured and reviewed in publications such as Artforum, The New York Times, Frieze, Art News, Art in America, Text zur Kunst.
