Susan Hensel Gallery

The focus of Susan Hensel Gallery is on compelling objects, meaningful use of materials, and engaging sculpture. It is a gallery where experimental ideas and works of the hand join to create unique sensory experiences. Opened September 10th, 2004 Susan Hensel Gallery is a gallery/ workspace presenting 5-6 shows per year in an intimate space, with hardwood floors and high tin ceilings. In 2013 the interior space reverted to a working studio for Susan Hensel where she continues to work on small and largescale artwork that engages both sculptural and cultural space. You can find her current work at www.SusanHenselProjects.com. The Susan Hensel Gallery is now both a large window gallery on Cedar Avenue, a main thoroughfare in south Minneapolis, and an online venture represented on Artsy.net.

But Trailing Clouds of Glory Do We Come by K. Daphnae Koop

Daphnae Koop’s abstract pieces are both heavy and elegant, muscular and mysterious. Their physicality projects such presence, yet their details point to so much ethereal intricacy. But Trailing Clouds of Glory Do We Come trains that dynamic visual language onto precise themes that open the viewer up to contemplation on the nature of reality and the miracle of existence.

Wayfinders by Susan Hensel

Single Story by Ingrid Restemayer

Single Story takes the idea of the house as a situation of place and circumstance. Each piece is the house overlayed with a stitched or collaged element. Simple elements – stitches, the image of a chicken – can change the implied situation. The combination tells a single story.

Single Story, by Ingrid Restemayer.  January 15-March 15, 2023

The Glow of Love by Kim Matthews

The pieces stand with open arms, a kind of inner presence emitting out into the shared space. This is the sculpture of Kim Matthews. It is a study of geometry splashing through color, neither overly formulaic nor totally lost to its own enthusiasm. In the end, the abstract shapes bring us somewhere new, inspiring fresh perspectives on the way both objects and our own selves exist in the world.

The Glow of Love delivers this balanced approach to color and form to the Susan Hensel Gallery from September 15 to November 15, 2022.
