Anton Henning: Midnight in Paris
Referring to the eponymous Woody Allen film in his most recent installation Midnight in Paris, Berlin-based artist Anton Henning (b. 1964) invites visitors on a journey through time exploring the artistic avant-garde of the 1920s and 30s. The full-bleed color catalog from the Zeppelin Museum, Berlin, is designed as a walk-through of the three rooms Henning filled with his paintings, furnishings and lighting as a way of framing an ironic peek into an earlier avant-garde from the present. An introduction and a brief essay by art historian and curator Claudia Emmert introduce the show s concept of art as production/ exhibition as paint- ing and Henning s intention to free looking, seeing, and perceiving from the tunnel vision of isms and artistic trademarks. Henning's installations incorporate his own paintings, sculptures, lighting, three-dimensional objects, wallpaper, carpets and purchased or self-designed furniture to create interior salons.
