Lia Anna Henning: Eat Me, 2006

Exhibition in the Kunstmuseum Bonn from 15 March to 15 April 2007. Red, erotic, carnal, halfway between glamour and cannibalism: this is how the mouth with its impeccable white teeth filling the screen of the monitor shows itself. This work by video artist Lia Anna Hennig is one of the 48 exhibits presented at the VIDEONALE in the Kunstmuseum Bonn. Besides the latest video creations by artists such as Jeanne Faust, Christoph Girardet or Mischa Kuball, the exhibition also presents works by young artists like the Japanese Hideyuki Tanaka, who shows the strange rites surrounding a godlike figure called Jappy.

"We want to show the whole spectrum of video art today. Above all, we are interested in the appeal of the contemporary", says Georg Elben, curator of VIDEONALE 11.
