Channa Horwitz and Michael Müller at François Ghebaly Gallery in Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES, CA.- François Ghebaly Gallery presents a two person show with Channa Horwitz and Michael Müller. This exhibition was born out of a symbiotic relationship that the two artists have developed since their initial meeting in 2007. Michael Müller was born in Germany in 1970 of Indian descent, and has over the past 15 years developed a compelling body of work, which explores the origins and boundaries of language, and the cultural identities (or the lack-of) shaped around it. Best known for his drawings and written work, the artist has been expending his means of expression to incorporate sculptures, installation, and most recently sound work. In his most recent body of work, Müller has rooted out the origin of language, and archived linguistic systems from the dawn of civilization up until most recent days. Each system is paired with a portrait of its alleged creator, when found. Drawn from this extensive research project,
