FRAUKE DANNERT – DESERT AFTER RAIN

New Perspectives in the Leonora Carrington Hall
November 29, 2024 until March 9, 2025

The Desert After Rain exhibition in the Leonora Carrington Hall presents works on paper and canvas as well as wall paintings of the artist Frauke Dannert, who lives and works in Cologne.

Frauke Dannerts (born 1979 in Herdecke) creative manner of expression is based on the technique of collage, which she uses in her graphic and painting works in diverse and exciting ways. The exhibition title is a poetic reference to the artistic work of Max Ernst. Inspired by the fantastic landscape spaces and the wealth of forms in his work, Frauke Dannert has created new series of work especially for the exhibition.
