Berlin By ROST

ROST a is Berlin based artist. The subject of his art is the city of Berlin, a city that he strips of it’s myth and romanticism and depicts as it exists today, a city in transition, a city rebuilding and reinventing itself as international epicenter for the arts and culture.

ROST ‘s prints are very much influenced by Japanese manga, both the 19th century work of Hokusai and Hiroshige and modern day manga masters such as Katsuhiro Otomo, but his work is not about the past. It is about Berlin today.

This enhanced ebook contains all of ROST’s prints of the city made between 2006 and 2012, as well as a short video about his work, and a section called ROST Remixed that randomly assembles his pictures into an ever changing portrait of the city.
