TILBAGEBLIK II






KUNSTBYGNINGEN I VRÅ


How do you become an artist? Is this a natural talent that unfolds? How do you learn to create art? And when can you call yourself an artist - when do you truly feel that you are one?

The  concept behind Tilbageblik is to give the viewer an insight into the engine room of art. Showing examples of all the roads – detours, byways and highways – an artist typically has to walk; all the trials that are needed to develop as an artist - and to become an artist in general. The exhibition shows works by eight contemporary artists with very different practices. The term "Retrospective exhibition" exhibition is usually a form of display there guides the audience through one artist's (long) life's work. But here we have a total of eight artists and can therefore more broadly show many of the steps on the way an artist takes on the way to a mature and personal expression.

We would like to show that a work of art is not just an idea that arose out of nothing, but an expression of accumulated experience, testing of materials, ideas and observation over a long period of time. Here the public can see works from the early start with exercises and studies, to completed larger works that characterize the artist today.

The exhibition has been developed in collaboration with three of the participating artists: Jonna Pedersen, Simon Grimm and Jacob Hoff as well as both the Art Building in Vrå – the Engelundsamlingen and the Janus Building in Tistrup.

This exhibition gives the audience a unique insight into how far an artist can move from start to finish to more complete expression. The public can look forward to experiencing a diverse exhibition with painting, sculpture and installation, from model studies to abstract expressions",  Signe Højmark, Kunstbygningen Vrå .

PAPIR!





29 June – 24 August 2024

More than 40 artists contribute works to the exhibition, which focuses on paper as a form of artistic expression.

The entire gallery will be filled with works on paper in countless forms:

From pencil drawing to woodcut, with sewing thread on paper and watercolours. Lithographs, prints, and even 3-dimensional works on paper can be found at the exhibition, where over 40 artists contribute their works. Many of the works were created directly for the exhibition. Others are from the former gallerist Georg's impressive collection of big Danish names.

WHY PAPER?

Over the past century, the definition of paper work has expanded its boundaries considerably. In the past, drawings were perceived as preparations for other works of art or illustrative images, but in recent years have transformed into an art form in their own right – and have become the favorite of many artists.

As with painting and sculpture, artists have pushed the boundaries of paper as a medium and expanded the possibilities and meaning of line and surface.

About:

MARIE BIRKEDAL

I dilute my paints so much that the binder breaks down and only the pigment remains, so that the color develops through evaporation and leaves behind dust-like traces, making the paintings seem evoked rather than made. My paintings embody time as a material just as much as paint and canvas. Each layer must be completely dry before the next and there are long phases of emptiness in which seemingly nothing happens, but really everything happens. To me, the tactile haptic experience is just as valid a way of understanding the world and being in it as words and language. I believe that there is a code of communication and understanding that is visual and beyond language.

GLORIA ZEIN

My hands do the work, but that is meaningless for the sculpture. Something finds expression through them; I only make myself available. When the intellect wants to control the result, banality lurks around the next corner and the experience is destroyed.

The challenge is to think NOTHING and to be completely in the moment.
Organisms store experiences in the strangest places.
A life's journey shapes posture, gait, facial features - and the shine
of the hair.
