Feelings @ Maria Lund – Paris
04/05/2013 @ 6:00 pm - 15/06/2013 @ 5:00 pm
freeIn a troubled social context where the ground foundations of Western society and its motto of always more are challenged by a mutation beyond mere economic destabilization, Peter Martensen emphasizes the only constant element of human history: our feelings, our emotional capacities, a reality both subjective and concrete for each of us. A way of showing in a time of uncertainty and of questioning that this is what is a given, this is what we have…
The Danish painter comes to the central Parisian gallery for the 7th time in an on-going and fruitful love relationship the French capital has with this Nordic artist. Strange worlds inhabited by experts, by knowledgeable men with a very definite purpose which we ignore.
“Metaphysical and terrestrial, reality and dreams intersect here in a mysterious and absurd scenario, executed with the deepest concentration by the protagonists, in a blend of action and total passivity.”
Just opened today and running until mid-June “Feelings” the sometimes awkward but unequivocal paintings from Martensen which sometimes evoke a disrupted perfect society comes as a great proposal to enter the upcoming summer moving between humor & critic. More info & images on Maria Lund’s website.
