Jo (Joseph) Kühn was a master of expressive knife cutting. His focus is on the human being in all his tragedy. Debauched scenes – often with violence and sexual acts – show the compulsiveness of the characters without moralizing. Jo Kühn was an observer with a sharp knife blade and a sharp eye. His protagonists all seem to be staggering equally towards a final. Some as passengers, some as bellwethers. Loosely based on "Hell, That's Ourselves" T.S. Elliot. The end in hell, which is also often the scenic setting in his works, is certain for everyone and the same for everyone. The torments to be suffered there hardly differ from the world of the living. The suffering is just more persistent and the environment darker. Jo Kühn mastered life himself and in his work with a loving black humor. (Clemens Feigel)
