The Artistic Evolution of Salomé

Born Wolfgang Ludwig Cihlarz in Karlsruhe, West Germany, the artist known as Salomé emerged as a prominent figure within the Junge Wilde or Neue Wilde movement. After training as an architectural draftsman, he moved to West Berlin in 1973, where he studied painting at the Berlin Academy of Art. His creative life in Berlin was deeply intertwined with the city's nightlife; he worked as a waiter in clubs such as Matalla and Dschungel, and the pseudonym Salomé was given to him in 1974 by Gerhard Hoffmann. Beyond the canvas, he is recognized as a sculptor and a Punk singer, having formed the band Geile Tiere with Luciano Castelli in 1980.

Salomé's international breakthrough occurred in 1982 when he was invited to participate in documenta 7 in Kassel, West Germany. His diverse body of work includes:

  • Colorful Swimmers series
  • Water Lilies series
  • Portraits of celebrities and VIPs

His artistic reach extends to collaborations with porcelain manufacturers like Philipp Rosenthal and Hutschenreuther to create painted sculptures and dinner services. Today, his paintings are held in renowned museums and private collections worldwide, and he continues to live and work in Berlin.
