Chris Hanson and Hendrika Sonnenberg: The Way Things Are

The multi-faceted practice of Brooklyn-based Canadian duo Chris Hanson and Hendrika Sonnenberg is overviewed in this mid-career survey. Included are works spanning the last twenty-five years of the artists’ production as well as a new animated video work. From their trademark indexical sculptures of everyday objects painstakingly crafted from polystyrene foam to photography, video, animation, and public art, this exhibition examines Hanson and Sonnenberg’s collaborative output and the conundrum of negotiation, conflict, and creativity that is central to their efforts.
