Artist Bio
A selfless dedication to the art of printmaking, Janssen's drawings and etchings have been the subject of solo exhibitions in the world´s most prestigious museums known for their drawing collections such as in Basel (1966), The Munch Museum in Oslo, The Harvard Busch Reisinger Museum in Cambridge, USA (1976), The Chicago Art Institute (1980), The Albertina Museum in Vienna (1991), The Rembrandt House in Amsterdam and a two person exhibition with Egon Schiele on the common theme of "Eros and Death" at the Leopold Museum in Vienna.
An eccentric and controversial figure, Horst Janssen has been considered by some as one of the most distinguished draftsmen of the second part of the 20th century. His drawings and graphic works have been the subject of many museum exhibitions worldwide. Well over a hundred books have been published on his work as well as a biography on his tumultuous life. In 2014, the French - German cultural television channel Arte produced a film titled "I am God's glory"
