Neo Rauch is a German oil painter. He combines themes of politics and personal history, Social Realism , and industrial alienation.
Subjects include men in uniform taking control of civilian life. The landscapes clash and have no apparent intention. The artist or painter often appears in the paintings themselves, engaging in a violent struggle. Formally the figures appear realistically comic-booky like a cartoon I would turn off or a violent graphic novel.
His works have been described as "failed utopia"
