German draughtsman, graphic artist, illustrator and photographer; one of the most outstanding German artists of the 20th century, the "Horst Janssen Museum" dedicated to him was opened in Oldenburg in 2000. "I am after the fleeting apparitions of this world in their changing disguises so that I could say at my funeral: 'I've seen it! And if I scream until then and in between, then: Leave me alone!" (Quote: HJ, 1980. www.kunstdirekt.net).
