FRIEDRICH KUNATH
17 April - October 14, 2010
Like a favorite poem, Friedrich Kunath's works poignantly yet playfully distill the fundamentals of human emotion–desire, loneliness, and anxiety–creating comically tragic scenes in which human beings try to find their way in the world. Employing an impressive range of mediums–drawing, painting, sculpture, installation, photography, and a neon sign–Kunath will cover the lobby walls, creating a world both fantastical and quotidian revolving around a number of middle aged male characters struggling to define their lives in a sea of uncertainty.
Organized by Anne Ellegood, Hammer senior curator.
