I was very happy to attend the vernissage of this Norwegian gallery during my stay in New York. The place was packed with people, and as the performance started, it was actually quite difficult for the artist to move through the crowd without hurting somebody.
The theme of the exhibition was White, which was the major colour in the works. Apart from that, there was a wide range of techniques. A great show. I only wish I could see the other two exhibitions themed by the colours of the Norwegian flag. Blue was the first one, Red will be the last.
Here are some highlights from the opening:
Björn Hegardt: Continous City II
Sol Kjøk: Waiting for the Sun
Kristin Skrivervik: Silence of Future
Performance by Agnes Nerdregård
