until 30.10. | #3176ARTatBerlin | Sprüth Magers Berlin (Window) shows from 17th September 2021 the window exhibition Night-time with new works by the artist Henni Alftan.
Henni Alftan is a Paris-based painter who creates pictures based on a complex process of observation and deduction. Working in figuration but rejecting a narrative dimension, Alftan’s compositions use the tight framing of close range photography to explore the similarities between painting and image-making.
“I paint pictures,” Alftan says, and “painting and picture often imitate each other.” Inviting viewers to consider the history, materiality, and objecthood of painting, Alftan’s vignettes represent a fragmented vision of the real and address pictorial issues such as color, surface, flatness, depth, pattern, texture, and framing devices.
Exhibition period: Friday, 17th September – Saturday, 30th October 2021
