Soup
• Anton Henning’s work reflects the discourse of desire, distance, taboo and elaborate hedonism. The motive, objectivity, circumstance and context force the viewer to trace the levels of meaning and find a realistic/surrealistic structure of daily needs and expression; ear, drink, sex and shit. Anton Henning is a cook of excellent soups with all kinds of ingredients.”
