Jårg Geismar

Jårg Geismar (born 19 January 1958 in Burgsvik, Gotland, Sweden), († February 26, 2019, Essen, Germany) was a German artist.

Since then he has worked internationally on numerous projects and symposia together with authors, scientists, artists, dancers and musicians.

The work of Jårg Geismar reaches out from the painting, on installations, video art and collaborative projects with artists from different sectors.

"There is a very down to-earth, do-it-yourself aesthetics at play in the works of Geismar, an elegant performance refreshing in a world dominated by the values of money, bling and all of the materialistic accoutrements of our time.

The context of Geismar's efforts are less to be seen in galleries than in public spaces, as this is a very open and generous art form, to be embraced from the mind and heart instead from the wallet alone."
