Five Sets of Magenta and Space

In his artist statement, Haupt writes: "My studio focuses on investigating the production of painting and space. The projects comprise series of drawings and paintings as well as objects and installations. The material and contextual conditions determine how I investigate the medium of painting and the ways in which color spaces are perceived and experienced. Tethering my work to production and process stretches it between formal and farther-reaching questions about human space."

Henning Haupt has exhibited his paintings and installations at many venues, including the Wenzel-Hablik- Museum, Germany, in 2016 and the Coral Springs Museum of Art, Florida, USA, in 2014.
