Portrait of an Animal

PORTRAIT OF AN ANIMAL, an artist’s book by Stefan Gritsch, is comprised of some 450 pages. In photographs and typographical designs, the artist addresses the question of his own identity by playing with an array of three letter words, both the names of animals (CAT, DOG , PIG , COW, TIT, ANT, FOX , RAT, APE) as well as personal names and other words (COP, PAL , SAD , GOD , WIN , WHY, WAR , ROB , SUE , DON , BOY, LOU , MOM , SPY, etc.) The pictures in PORTRAIT OF AN ANIMAL refer not only to the artist’s surroundings, biographical locations and his art but also to arenas of war in Yemen, Tigray, Sudan, Syria and Natanz in Iran. PORTRAIT OF AN ANIMAL is not only a biographical book: I AM , but who and what are we?
