Given that
The Sucklord is a man of the people, what is his message to the masses?
Buy this shit, motherfuckers! You need this stuff! You need to have this because it is going to compel you whatever it is you’re going to do in the world. The Sucklord’s just a loser from New York with a few talents and a little support, and if you’ve got a good idea and discipline and are willing to suffer for it, you can do your thing. But until you get your thing together, buy his thing.

Drei Männer, drei Autos, drei Obsessionen: mysteriöse Andeutungen reifen zu konkreten Handlungen, im geschützten Raum aus Glas, Chrom und Blech wird gezeichnet, meditiert und fotografiert. Eine in der ländlichen Garage angesiedelte Studie über die Getriebenheit, ein staubiges Road-Movie in Schwarz-Weiss, ohne Asphalt und ohne heulende Motoren. Skurril-witziger Bodensatz zwischen Reifenstapel, Ledersitzen und Alu-Felgen: abseits von narrativer Schlüssigkeit, werden in „automatic“ Genres wie Film Noire oder Nouvelle Vague zitiert.

No doubt,
Paule Hammer is a painter. Yet often, the two dimensions of a sheet of paper or canvas are insufficient to express his idiosyncratically enigmatic designs of the world.
If that is the case, he makes use of space: a wooden shack is packed with portraits of Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Johnny Cash, Hannelore Kohl, the protagonists from Planet of The Apes. It is covered with the jackets and trousers awarded to honour glam-rockers and with mutant hub cap shields. Conceived as a gigantic 3-dimensional painting, Hammer called this installation Walhalla (2002). Although lacking gold leaf, it radiated with the power of religious icon painting.
