This artwork depicts Campino, the lead singer of “Die Toten Hosen”, captured in a moment full of energy and expression. It feels as if you were standing right in the middle of a concert: his posture, movement, and immediate connection to the microphone make the intensity of a live performance almost tangible.
Lohner transforms Campino into a modern icon, a symbol of passion, vitality, rebellion, and decades of musical history. The portrait goes far beyond a mere depiction and captures the essence of a legend. Especially striking are the song titles woven into the piece, such as “Strom”, “Die Schöne und das Biest”, and “Wieviel Jahre”.
The abstract background functions like an emotional stage: not a real environment, but a vibrant space that conveys mood rather than location. The orange frame reinforces this impression, turning the painting into a kind of stage window through which we glimpse a concentrated burst of the singer’s energy.
