Neuware -Jon Rafman gehört zu den bedeutendsten Künstlern, die sich mit dem digitalen Zeitalter auseinandersetzen. Seine Videos und Filme zeigen euphorisch und analytisch zugleich, wie wir als Gesellschaft mit dem Internet und seinen ständigen Veränderungen umgehen. Rafmans Praxis besteht aus der Kombination von virtuos erzählten Geschichten und am Rechner erzeugten, unheimlichen Bildern. Sie greift sowohl auf künstliche Intelligenz als auch auf die virtuellen Welten von Benutzerplattformen wie Second Life zurück. Diese Publikation erscheint zur ersten Einzelausstellung des Künstlers in einem deutschen Museum und präsentiert einen Überblick zu dessen Schaffen seit 2008: Frühe Werke wie Nine Eyes of Google Street View (2008-fortlaufend) und Kool-Aid Man in Second Life (2008-11) sowie spätere Arbeiten wie das Video in Spielfilmlänge Dream Journal, das 2019 auf der 58. Biennale in Venedig gezeigt wurde, sowie Rafmans neuestes Werk, Main Stream Media Network (2025-2026), ein Pasticcio des historischen MTV, das mithilfe von KI-Modellen die 1980er-Jahre heraufbeschwört.Jon Rafman, (\*1981 Montréal, Kanada, lebt in Los Angeles) ist Künstler, Filmemacher und Essayist. Er studierte Philosophie und Literatur an der McGill University in Montréal und erlangte einen MFA-Abschluss am School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Im Zentrum seines Schaffens steht die Frage danach, wie Technologien unsere Wahrnehmung und unser Bewusstsein prägen. Seine Arbeiten werden international ausgestellt, jüngere Einzelpräsentationen fanden u.a. im Centraal Museum Utrecht (2020), in der Fondazione Modena Arti Visive (2018) und im Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (2016) statt.Hatje Cantz Verlag GmbH, Mommsenstraße 27, 10629 Berlin 352 pp. Englisch, Deutsch.…

Jon Rafman is one of the most significant artists exploring the digital age. His videos and films offer a perspective that is both euphoric and analytical, showing how we as a society deal with the internet and its constant changes. Rafman’s practice combines masterfully told stories with eerie, computer-generated images. It draws on both artificial intelligence and the virtual worlds of user platforms such as Second Life. This publication accompanies the artist’s first solo exhibition in a German museum and presents an overview of his work since 2008: Early works such as Nine Eyes of Google Street View (2008–ongoing) and Kool-Aid Man in Second Life (2008–11), as well as later works such as the feature-length video Dream Journal, which was shown at the 58th Venice Biennale, as well as Rafman’s latest work, Main Stream Media Network (2025–26), a pastiche of the historic MTV that evokes the 1980s with the help of AI models.
