Sehnsucht @ Light & Sie

If you happen to be in Dallas between 07.31 and 09.06.08, drop by Light & Sie Gallery to checkout Sehnsucht.

"Sehnsucht (Aspiration), a group exhibition of paintings, photographs, video and works on paper organized by Georges Armaos. The works selected are a mix of emerging and well established international artists. Contemporary abstract painting is approached through works by Ingrid Calame, David Reed, and Dan Walsh. Photography is represented with works by Vanessa Beecroft, Todd Eberle, Thomas Ruff, Hedi Slimane, and Jeremy Kost while two important projections by Kimsooja and Joseph Dadoune complete the exhibition."

"The exhibition’s title borrows a German composite word, sehnsucht. Sehnsucht is loosely and unsuccessfully translated in English as 'aspiration' or 'longing'. It has been a central notion to the German romantics at the turn of the 18th to 19th century and was considered as the quintessential feeling of desire for something that is no longer present or in existence."
