Simon Denny: The Scapegoat vs. The Commons [metaphor machines]

MOCA Cleveland presents a new body of work by Simon Denny (b. 1982, Auckland) that includes painting, sculpture, and drawing, marking a notable integration of new forms for the artist. Denny is a Berlin-based artist whose work explores the ways in which media and technology influence human behavior and determine how we operate as consumers.

The exhibition explores the psychographic use of data in the 2016 US presidential campaign through a series of abstract formalist paintings. Denny’s exhibition also includes new drawings and sculptures.
