New lead paintings and sculptures.
It is a pleasure to be able to open the doors to a new exhibition with the
work of Günther Förg. The work have all been created during Förgs stay in the
new studio house in Vejby Strand. A house
which has been designet by Henning Larsen.
The exhibition will contain paintings on lead. A proces that Förg has been
working on through the years. In the paintings he uses a very simple and
minimalistic imagery, a kind of alfabet which he
has used through his entire production.
In the exhibition you will also find a series of sculptures cast in bronze.
The sculptures have very characteristic shapes, which brings images of
icebergs to mind. The sculptures will serve as the formal
contrast to the simple and minimal leadpaintings.
Along with the exhibition a book by Lars Morell about Günther Förgs
bronzesculptures will be published. They can among other places be seen at
Louisiana Museum of Modern Art.
Galerie Mikael Andersen has been
located at Bredgade 63 in Copenhagen since 1989. The
gallery houses changing exhibitions of
Danish and international contemporary art.
Centering initially on important
Danish and international artists emerging in the 1980s,
the gallery has broadened its roster
to include stand-out artists of the younger
generation. In addition, the gallery
represents select artists of the modern age.
