In I Called Your Name from Beyond the Stars, artist Dennis Scholl presents his newest drawings that linger like an echo from another world. Rooted loosely in Christian tradition but unbound by its constraints, this body of work unfolds through a series of richly imaginative, symbol-laden artworks that defy traditional interpretation.

More about the book
The catalogue opens with a fragment of the biblical passage Balaam, the Donkey, and the Angel — not as a literal reference point, but as an atmospheric entryway into Scholl’s visual universe. The text sets the tone, but the true narrative is told through the images: layered, haunting, and otherworldly compositions that invite contemplation rather than conclusion.
Scholl uses language as a distant radio signal — fragmented, poetic, suggestive — while his artwork speaks with its own strange clarity. Ornate, uncanny, and spiritually charged, these images seem to arrive from a place outside of time, calling the viewer into dialogue with the unknown.
Beautifully designed with bold typography and elegant pacing, this catalogue is a work of art in itself — a portal for anyone drawn to the intersection of mysticism, mythology, and contemporary visual art.

I Called Your Name from Beyond the Stars
This catalogue was published on the occasion of I Called Your Name from Beyond the Stars, the first solo exhibition by Dennis Scholl with the gallery. The show features a series of hauntingly beautiful new drawings and woodcuts that blend sacred iconography with his unique symbolism. Scholl’s signature style, which is intimate, otherworldly, and emotionally charged, invites viewers into his idiosyncratic world where devotion, mortality, and cosmic mystery intertwine.
