Opening: 21.11. 2014 kl. 17-20
Long, long, long handler om at se. Det er virkelig det eneste der forlanges af beskueren: at denne ser på malerierne. Ikke fordi de skal regnes ud eller afslører noget, hvis man giver dem tid - men fordi de er smukke. Når det så er sagt, kræver dét, at man ser, også at man bevæger sig. Ingen af værkerne kan ses på én gang, man skal op og ned og tage et skridt frem og så tilbage igen. Det minder lidt om en dans mellem værkerne og beskueren og således opstår der en intimitet mellem kunstneren og beskueren.
Udstillingen er støttet af Statens Kunstfond og Statens Værksteder for Kunst.
Text in English
Long, long, long is about seeing. It's really the only thing required of the viewer: that he or she looks at the paintings. Not because some great revelation awaits whomever takes enough time to look — but because the paintings are beautiful. That being said, in order to see them, one needs to move around. None of the works can be seen at once, you have to move up and down and take a step forward and then one backwards. It is a bit like a dance between the work and the viewer, and this creates an intimacy between the artist and the viewer.
