A dialogue exhibition between Finnish artist Nina Roos and German painter Paula Modersohn-Becker which brings light to their different and yet - across the times - common way of approaching color. Roos, winner of a Carnegie Art Award, creates art described as ethereal, sensual, intimate and expressive while Paula’s compositions point toward cubism and abstract painting, exploring the secret potential of color. She is considered one of the most interesting exponents of European modernism.

The viewing of these paintings provides a visual and thematic aspect. Within the still-image of these paintings a kind of greed of virtuality and replication is calmed. The conceptual content is entailed in the encounter of the viewer and the work. The paradigms of visual representations serve as the parameters organizing viewer’s reactions and the question arises of the relationship of the self with the world and with alerity.

For the last ten years, Røgeberg has been making paintings that convey a desire to externalize internal experience. Her translation of flesh, bodily folds and distended appendages into paint expresses a slow, methodical, meditative process of surrender. The figures of her paintings often display unconscious quirks of behavior and their bodies allow transgressive behavior.
