Marina Abramovic

The well known Serbian performance artist Marina Abramovic is now represented at the Contemporary Art Projects at the BGE.

A unique artist
with unique portraits.

The gallery has a very nice architecture and is situated next to the Catholic Church.
It looked like it was a popular place to visit on a Sunday.
Nice to meet people who are eager to tell about the art and the artist too.

(This is : Portraits with Onions, from 2008.)

Art

Colourful and fun art by Anette Moi, seen at Kvadrat.

Next to the church.

Stavange has got a wonderful place for Contemporary Art.
BGE Contemporary Art Projects
It is situated next to the Catholic Church at Kannik, and has not only great art, but also great architecture.
They also have a good collection of Art Books for sale.
New exhibition coming soon.

I will promise to post some art next time.
You might have been visiting it before the new building, when it was at Tollboden ?

Anyway, hope you have had a nice and happy weekend!

Artistic busses.

The sky is BLUE over the clouds.

A bit of sunshine and +4C this afternoon.

This is just a snapshot.

We have a few very artistically decorated buses. This is done by the artist Hama Woods.

Artistic ear.

In the lobby area at the Radisson Blu Atlantic Hotel, you can see this artistic ear.
Nice to see something nice that surprises and is unique!
Well done to Link Arkitektur!

A clear message.....

Skur2

Yesterday I visited Skur2, where Sunderø Gallery have an art exhibition with four artist showing contemporary artwork / pencil drawings.

This "Newborn Gray Whale" by the artist Solveig Bergene was already bought by a private collector.
(Probably a person with lots of space at home.)

The work measures 220 x 450 cm.

If you have a chance to go there, take a good look at the whale's EYE.

AMPPARRITO from Spain.

AMPPARRITO from Spain is the young artist of this fascinating art.
Part of NUART here in Stavanger.

Thanks for the artistic work!

I just love the colourful and artistic work here on the very GREY part of the airport.

Thanks to the Portoguese artist, Diogo Machado, and also to Nuart and Avinor!

A trip to Sandnes.

A trip to Sandnes yesterday evening also included a look around KINOKINO Kunstsal (art gallery).
If you live in the area and hurry up, you can see these artistic graphic works from around 1940 that have been scanned from slides and turned into large posters.

Old Stavanger

The entrance to one of the houses in OLD STAVANGER.

Art by Per Inge Bjørlo.

Art installation by Per Inge Bjørlo.
A well known Norwegian artist.
(Seen at the same place as yesterdays posting, Hå Gamle Prestegård.)

Power To The Bees.

"Power to the bees" is the title for this years summer exhibition at Hå Gamle Prestegård.
An art and culture centre about 1 hour drive south of Stavanger.
Today there was quite a big group of visitors but unfortunately no guided tour.
It would have been interesting to hear more about the artists:
Sabino Guiso (Mexico), Louis Masai (UK), Stanislaw Brach (Polen,) Ann Kristine Aanonsen and Sidsel Hanum (Norway), Ren Ri (China) and Terence Koh (US)

I have to say that this place manage again and again to deliver some really arty surprises.
I recommend going there.

Remember that the same ticket is also valid at the lighthouse Obrestad.

Art by Kjell Pahr-Iversen

The gallery Sølvberget (at the Culture House) is showing art by Kjell Pahr-Iversen.

This is made back in 1966 and also very nice, but different to what his work looks like now.
The artist was born in Stavanger, and still lives here.
He will turn 80 later this year. Still painting and still very popular with art collectors.
His work is also known outside Norway.

The exhibition is open well into August.

I wish you a HAPPY WEEKEND, from a summery and sunny Stavanger today.

An event this summer.

One of the things I will do SOON.
His work is just amazing.

Go and take a look at the gallery at the Culture house if you have the chance.
