Christian Jankowski

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christian Jankowski (born 1968 in Göttingen, Germany) is a contemporary multimedia artist who largely works in video, installation, and photography. He has created a number of television interventions, including "Telemistica" (1999), in which he asks Italian television psychics if his new art work will be successful (the video he then created is comprised of recordings of these psychics answering his question), and "The Holy Artwork" (2001), in which he collaborated with a televangelist pastor.
