I am really flummuxed here! Hope you can help.
Context:
"Wir freuen uns, Ihnen in unserer nächsten Ausstellung neue Werke des deutschen Objektkünstlers Manfred Pernice (*1963 in Hildesheim, lebt und arbeitet in Berlin) präsentieren zu können.
Seit seinem fulminanten Auftritt 1998 auf der Berlin Biennale mit einer auf Tatlin und Speer bezogenen **Haupt- bzw. Zentraldose**, ist Pernice regelmässig in internationalen Ausstellungen vertreten; so 2000 auf der manifesta, sowie in der Kunsthalle Zürich, 2002 auf der documenta und 2003 auf der Biennale in Venedig und kürzlich im Museum of Modern Art, New York, in “Drawing from the Modern, 1975-2005”."

agree  Lancashireman: Good research. Something that the asker could have found for him/herself. It always surprises me that some askers simply abandon questions: no response, no feedback, no closure. I hope this attracts another agree so that at least the robot can grade it.
