Lena Henke
March 22 – May 17, 2014
GEBURT UND FAMILIE will include artworks and a publication organized around Henke’s conceit of a sculpture becoming pregnant, and will be continued with a forthcoming exhibition at Skulpturenmuseum Glaskasten Marl, Germany.
Lena Henke has held solo exhibitions with Real Fine Arts, New York; Neuer Aachener Kunstverein, Aachen; Galerie Parisa Kind, Frankfurt am Main; Kunstverein Oldenburg, Oldenburg; and 1857, Oslo. She has participated in group exhibitions held with Greene Naftali, New York; Pro Choice, Vienna; and the Glasgow International, Glasgow. Together with artist Marie Karlberg, Henke co-founded the itinerant curatorial project M/L Artspace, which has mounted exhibitions in such locations as a nail salon and a parking lot under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. Henke completed her MFA dually at at the Städelschule, Frankfurt am Main and the Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow. She lives and works in New York.
