Vebjørn Sand has proven to be a figure in contemporary Norwegian society whose interests have not been confined to the studio but who has inspired public discussion, debate and even controversy. His collaborative project, Trollslottet, was immensely popular and has become a favorite of the Norwegian media. In this role he has brought the Leonardo Project to the Norwegian Public Roads Administration and has inspired its construction in the town of Ås. To build this bridge five hundred years after it was designed by Leonardo da Vinci is a tribute to Vebjørn Sand’s vision, as well as to the vision of the Norwegian Public Roads Administration and the engineering firms responsible for its realization. Norwegian public life boasts a long-standing relationship between the artist and society.

This exhibition was primarily an installation and a new approach for Morten Schelde, taking a step toward opening out the universe of his drawings to a spatial process in which one experiences his work with the body as much with the eye. The landscape as well as a series of smaller iconic drawings offer hints of small, dreamlike surreal dramas, where Schelde addresses our culturally-formed view of nature and invites us to experience a state of pure being. The book contains, almost exclusively, full-page reproductions of the work, including a fold-out, and an interview with the artist about the exhibition. A lovely little catalogue to collect.

This book captures the artist’s very personal process, where he explores organic shapes in a quest for a new interpretation of sculpture. Kimmo Schroderus displays a great analytical faculty and a capacity for change. After realizing works on canvas, on mirrors, in leather and in wood, he has recently been applying metal techniques to sculpture, while at the same time alluding to two very different formal references: forms taken from architecture and forms taken from the hand-crafted object, as well as from nature and construction, from movement and equilibrium. The range of forms that he is working on at the moment span an interest in representation and a certain intimation of landscape. Out of steel, he constructs pieces that go beyond the limits of the traditional space of sculpture (the three dimensional), so as to deal simultaneously with open space and closed space, with the interior and the exterior. In his constructions he ‘represents’ sculptural landscapes.

This booklet contains a selection of this Finnish artist (b. 1970) most interesting works. The art transgresses the boundaries between handicraft, high art and popular culture, and therefore he can be linked to famous male artists of the history of art - to Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and Jeff Coons. His art refer to the tradition of handicraft through his use of materials and craftmanship. In his hands black leather together with bright colored leather, like red, gold and blue, create visually and aesthetically pleasant and beautiful surfaces. He has created sculptures for the home such as a steel bed covered with leather, a table, chairs, mirrors, and even a car.
