Jäger von Zoest - concept, gallery and performance
Jäger von Zoest is a concept for a gallery that represents art "that you can't take with you". The appearance of the gallery is a performance.
Jäger von Zoest represents and promotes concept- or text-based art, especially performance art, which does not aim to create relics with the character of a work. For this reason, the gallery does not exhibit or sell any works. Instead, it presents its artists in its own gallery book, arranges contact with them and invites them to show a performance or carry out an action during a gallery appearance.

Jäger von Zoest only sells its own concept; either in book form or as a concept with permission to realize the concept. Anyone who buys the concept is allowed to run their own Jäger von Zoest gallery with their own gallery book and their own artists and becomes part of the Jäger von Zoest network.
With each subsidiary gallery that is created in this way, the network grows and with it the platform for the artists represented, as each gallery is allowed to present and sell the books of the other Jäger von Zoest galleries.
