58th Cabinet Exhibition
"Messiah Practicing" is the title of a series of paintings by the Berlin-based artist and sculptor Georg Weise. It depicts a boy on his skateboard, practicing athletic skills while simultaneously adopting postures reminiscent of the iconography of the Crucifixion and the Deposition. In a surprising, moving, and humorous way, youthful play and the solemnity of the Passion intersect – culminating in the "practicing of the Ascension."
