We Need To Talk About Anton

Click on Post Title for link to Anton Henning's current show at Arndt in Berlin. Running to April 20th, perhaps NOCM's Berlin correspondents will give a face-to-face view of the work.

The artist came up recently in a conversation I was having with artist and painttube contributor Susan MacWilliam. Curious about his most recent work (it's also coming to The Talbot Rice in Edinburgh sometime in 2011 I've read) I went looking for images and information that can be found on the Arndt website- including a downloadable PDF interview and catalogue. Well.....the images below came to mind immediately- it's a bit like Paul Devlaux meets 'on the cusp of Orphism' Robert Delaunay, with Duchamp's Sixteen Miles of String thrown in for good measure. That is probably the point though....
