Anton Henning

It is a fact that Anton Henning is a self-taught artist. What exactly that means in relation to his work is not so clearcut.

Here is another fact: New Yorker Times critic Roberta Smith described Henning’s New York Debut as follows “This Young Berlin artist’s Neoexpressionist canvases, large-scale collages and drawings … reflect a capable melding of styles: Julian Schnabel, George Condo, Joseph Beuys and Cy Twombly, with a bit of Picasso thrown in for good measure.” In other words, Henning’s artwork discloses a formula equating styles and artist’s proper names: the reduction of style to the subject of biography.

Anton Henning was born 1964 in Berlin, he lives in Berlin and Manker.
