Friedrich Kunath (born 1974 in Chemnitz, East Germany) is a visual artist who lives in Los Angeles. He has exhibited widely including solo exhibitions at the Schinkel Pavillon (2011), the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles (2010), Kunstverein Hannover (2009), Kunsthalle Baden-Baden (2009), Aspen Art Museum (2008). Group exhibitions include 'The World Belongs to You', Palazzo Grassi, Venice (2011), '11th Triennale für Kleinplastik, Fellbach' (2010) and 'Life on Mars: the 55th Carnegie International' (2008).[1]

Work

Kunath works in a wide range of media, integrating a highly descriptive visual language into his paintings, drawings, sculptures, photographs and videos. By exercising an acute understanding of life’s highs and lows, Kunath creates emotive works that tap into a collective consciousness – exploring the ways in which we live, love and remember. In 2010 Kunath was held solo exhibitions at the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, Kaikai Kiki, Tokyo, and Andrea Rosen Gallery, New York.[citation needed]
