Marlon Wobst

Marlon Wobst (b. 1980) is a German artist born in Wiesbaden, who lives and works in Berlin. In his paintings ordinary-seeming subjects always take on a humorous slant.

Wobst has taken part in solo and group exhibitions in Europe, Brazil and the USA. This exhibition at Helsinki Contemporary is his debut in Finland.
