Currently at the Kestnergescellschaft in Hannover, Germany is “Distance from Nowhere” highlighting the works of American artist David Salle. Since the 1980’s, Salle’s work has been associated with artistic movements such as “Neo-Expressionism” and “Transavantgardia.” His work often defies art historical classifications and is continually characterized by an independent style.Seventeen large-scale paintings dating from 2007 to 2009 are exhibited in Germany for the first time with the addition of six older paintings executed between 1983 and 1998.
