Four Horseman of the Apocalypse #8, from Exit Art

A digitally manipulated chromogenic print by Paul Pfeiffer, *Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse #8* presents a haunting image of a basketball game in which the players' bodies have been meticulously erased, leaving only the luminous, charged atmosphere of the arena. Pfeiffer's precise intervention transforms a familiar sporting spectacle into an unsettling meditation on mass culture, identity, and the void left by the absent human form. Printed on Fujicolor Crystal Archive paper with full margins, the work exemplifies the artist's mastery of digital alteration as a means of exposing the constructed nature of collective experience and desire.
