Julian Kraemer
M.A.

Julian Kraemer is a visual and conceptual artist as well as a cultural scholar based in Berlin. Through figurative oil paintings, site-specific installations, and experimental media, he explores what it means to live in a technocratic modernity.

Kraemer’s work offers a humorous and accessible perspective on what is often perceived as an apocalyptic reality. By questioning whether the world’s end has already happened, he shifts the focus from catastrophe to a reimagined social reality. Rather than presenting fixed narratives, he sees his works as open-ended experiments—designed to spark engagement and invite multiple interpretations.

By playing with paradoxical arrangements, Kraemer examines the diminishing role of the individual in contemporary society. Yet rather than resigning to this reality, he uses art to inspire curiosity about alternative forms of organization and emerging infrastructures built through collective engagement.

Kraemer holds a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy (HfPh Munich) and a Master’s in Arts, Media, and Creative Industries (Zeppelin University Friedrichshafen). His research interests include media studies, the phenomenology of technology, and the role of collective organization in cultural production.
