An early installation ''Ahoi der Angst'' was presented at the first Berlin Biennale in 1998. Susanne Titz, writing about the Biennale said, "It was thus clear that Meese had indeed put his finger on the pulse of his generation and presented it."〔Titz, Susanne. (2007). "Mr. Deltoid's a.k.a. Urleandrusus' Sonnenallee AHOI DE ANGST FAIR WELL Good Bye". In ''Mama Johnny''. Köln: Contemporary Fine Arts and Walther König, 321〕 According to Karel Schampers, "Jonathan Meese can tell a story in such a gripping way that you would never have the idea to doubt its truth. Especially his installations benefit from this quality,"〔Schampers, Karel. (2007). "Sherwood Forest: Jonathan Meese and Jörg Immendorff". In ''Mama Johnny''. Köln: Contemporary Fine Arts and Walther König, 316〕 Meese has been included in exhibitions “Spezialbilder” at Contemporary Fine Arts in Berlin, “Grotesk!” at Schirn Kunsthalle in Frankfurt and “Schnitt bringt Schnitte” at Ausstellungsraum Schnitt in Köln.

The Museum of Contemporary Art (MoCA), North Miami presented the first major solo museum exhibition in the United States for Jonathan Meese, which included Meese's paintings that mix personal hieroglyphics and collage, installations, ecstatic performances, and a powerful body of sculptures in a variety of media. The exhibition was on view from December 1, 2010 – February 13, 2011, during Art Basel Miami Beach 2010. Jonathan Meese: Sculpture was organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami and curated by Director and Chief Curator Bonnie Clearwater. In 2007, he collaborated with the composer Karlheinz Essl on the installation ''FRÄULEIN ATLANTIS'' shown at the Essl Museum in Vienna/Klosterneuburg.

He has worked collaboratively with the painters Jörg Immendorff, Albert Oehlen, Tim Berresheim, Daniel Richter, Tal R and the composer Karlheinz Essl. For the Salzburg Festival 2010, Meese created an acclaimed stage design for the world premiere of Wolfgang Rihm's opera ''Dionysus''.〔Hans-Joachim Müller (August 2, 2010), (Das ist eine brutal gute Zeit für einen Neustart ) ''Die Welt, welt.de''〕 For the Bayreuth Festival in 2016 Meese was offered a contract to direct a new production of Parsifal. This contract has since been rescinded, the official reason being that it would have been too expensive for the Festival to maintain. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jonathan Meese」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
