HENNING BOHL NAMENLOSES GRAUEN II Opening: Tue, 13th of November, 7pm Duration of the exhibition: 14.11. 2012 - 04.01. 2013 The elegantly and freely constructed installations of the german artist Henning Bohl are distinguished by the efficient use of their resources. He uses simple, lightweight materials, which he combines to large-scale, temporary settings out of large format collages and objects, which function like props in a theater play. These are for example large shaped cornets (usually associated with ‘first day of school presents’ for children in Germany), desks and prefabricated frames and their emotional and cultural connotations. Bohl questions the conditions of exhibiting: what is the work, what is the presentation or display? Where does he exhibit as well as, how are the impositions of the art system to be assessed? Based on one aspect of an existing structure everything falls into place and branches into different directions. The works deal with a variety of subjects such as biographies of artists, interiors and Cosmic Horror Literature. In his first solo exhibition in Austria, he will show new drawings and sculptures. In this new presentation he turns the sparingly endowed white cube into a marketplace - one that is simply deserted for a moment. Henning Bohl studied in Kassel and Frankfurt with Thomas Bayrle. He has exhibited among others in the Kunstvereine in Düsseldorf, Hamburg and Frankfurt as well as at the Cubitt Gallery in London. In the upcoming year, a major solo exhibition will take place at the Kunsthalle Nürnberg. _____________________ GALERIE MEYER KAINER www.meyerkainer.com _____________________ WILL BENEDICT | BERNADETTE CORPORATION | JOHN BOCK | WOLFGANG BREUER | OLAF BREUNING | VERENA DENGLER | PETER FRIEDL | GELITIN/GELATIN | LIAM GILLICK | DAN GRAHAM | RACHEL HARRISON | MARY HEILMANN | SIGGI HOFER | CHRISTIAN JANKOWSKI | ELKE SILVIA KRYSTUFEK | ANITA LEISZ | MARCIN MACIEJOWSKI | SARAH MORRIS | YOSHITOMO NARA | JORGE PARDO | RAYMOND PETTIBON | MATHIAS POLEDNA | ISA SCHMIDLEHNER | REENA SPAULINGS | LUCIE STAHL | MARTINA STECKHOLZER | FRANZ WEST | T.J.
