Time in The US

The Keinholz’s moved from LA to Hope, Idaho in 1973. They spent time in both Berlin and Idaho for the next 20 years. Keinholz open the Faith and Charity in Hope Gallery at their Idaho studio in 1977, a year after he received a Guggenheim Fellowship. Because a lot of his works are so large many of them have not been displayed very much in the US. They are also hard for people to view because of their subject matter. The gruesome nature of some of the sculptures caused a lot of controversy and problems with having them displayed.
