Meyer Riegger and Galleria Franco Noero proudly present a joint Kabinett of works by Henrik Håkansson, whose practice combines the interest in the environment of a biologist, an anthropologist and an artist simultaneously.

The central piece of the presentation, ‘Untitled Swarm (Sturnus vulgaris) #3’, 2011, is a hanging sculpture that references the work of Alexander Calder. In Håkansson’s sculpture, which is shown in dialogue with a series of paintings by the artist, he replaces the elements of Calderʼs mobiles with stuffed starlings of different origins, which hang from an iron structure, thereby creating a new mobile symbolising the perfect synthesis of the balance that defines any natural event.
