PAST EXHIBITION
Henning Bohl
September 6, 2007—October 13, 2007

Press Release

Casey Kaplan is pleased to announce the first solo exhibition of Henning Bohl in the United States.  Hovering between figuration and abstraction, minimalism and the decorative, Henning Bohl deconstructs the meaning of a found object by systematically creating new way(s) to represent and understand them. Bohl is interested in abstracting words and images, shifting and re-shifting them to create new meanings and different variations of the original. The artist weaves a net of references from sources including (art) history, old books, magazines and illustrations to create a thematic field that combines diverse subjects using different materials. In 2006 the artist had a solo exhibition at the Kunstverein, Braunschweig, Braunschweig, Germany; was included in “Street: behind the Cliché,” at the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, Rotterdam, The Netherlands; and the 4th Berlin Biennial for Contemporary Art, Berlin, Germany.
