John Aker’s Perfect Impossible Book. John Akre is a local filmmaker who made the Perfect Impossible Book, on view at Susan Hensel Gallery during Reader’s Art9. These 4 stills just give you a taste of the frenetic goofiness as people tell the camera what their perfect impossible book would be. The use of text, while seizure enhancing, is brilliant!

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 large scale 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.
