Denny is best known for her “Domestic Trophies” work—deer heads covered in cozy cashmere cable knit woolens and the like. She has shown in galleries nationwide for over 10 years, and her work will be shown at The Ohio Museum of Craft in the coming year..


Out of the Woods, the latest body of work by Rachel Denny is an exploration of the seductive beauty of our natural world and the imprint that human intervention has made on its flora and fauna. Denny is attracted by the exuberance of nature in urban and unexpected places. "A deer in an urban backyard, a family of Peregrine falcons at my neighborhood park, a coyote skirting a parking lot," she says, "These all become a moment of wonder as they shake us out of our daily routines."

Dressed! Art en Vogue


a very hot tip for all those interested in the interaction between art and fashion, the often quoted threshold - this edition of Art Forum - 6/09-7/09 is dedicated to the imaginary exhibition "Dressed Art in Vogue", which unfortunately was 3 months before it opened in the Museum Kunst Palast in Dusseldorf canceled on short notice.


Here is a little insight and a few of my favorite works.
