黑料不打烊

When GL STRAND on the 8th of November 2008 opens its doors to a new exhibition by Nils Erik Gjerdevik, the spectator will experience a total installation consisting of paintings, drawings and ceramic sculptures, made especially for GL STRAND鈥檚 3rd floor. for a number of years and within the realms of painting formal circumstances in relation to the creation of images inspired by the possibilities in new digital image production has been a focal point. Nils Erik Gjerdevik has positioned himself centrally over a longer period of years in the form of highly original contributions to the analysis and exploration of these very issues. He is working on an ongoing study of the many possible forms of abstraction, which has been introduced especially through art history. His distinctive work with the modes of presentation in non-figurative paintings has also resulted in a gradual approximation of painting and drawing, which has induced that the non-figurative universe is in constant genesis in two directions: Inwards towards an imaginary universe and outwards towards physical abstraction. In his new works Gjerdevik has used GL STRAND鈥檚 distinctive architecture and exhibition space. Everything has been adjusted to suit this old bourgeois house with a mounting that goes to the very edge 鈥� work edge, floor edge, wall edge and ceiling. In terms of motifs Gjerdevik seeks to break up the framework through new explorations of the seemingly endless tactile and optic qualities of the non-figurative.
