Jonas Hödicke: Unfamiliar in the city

The artist, known for his constant search for new forms of expression, takes visitors on a discovery tour that combines traditional Japanese elements with urban modernity.


Even as a child, Hödicke was fascinated by Japan—its samurai swords, brave warriors, and colorful festivals, but also the mysterious geishas. Inspired by masterpieces such as those of the legendary Katsushika Hokusai, he creates a unique symbiosis between his artistic language and the cultural diversity of Japan.


“Unfamiliar in der Stadt” is a bold and unique exhibition that opens up a new perspective on Japanese martial arts and urban aesthetics in Berlin.


Jonas Hödicke invites you to experience this extraordinary encounter—a fusion that breaks traditional boundaries and shows art in a completely new light.
