For her solo exhibition Visiting at the Vigeland Museum in Oslo, Anne-Karin Furunes has chosen a selection of her paintings from the last ten years. The basic element of Furunes’ art is a photograph, usually a small picture found in an archive. These photographs are transformed by perforation into images on canvas with light-permeable surfaces. The perforation creates a lively visual, kinetic moment giving light and life to the portraits. The exhibition runs until 19 May.
“The scale is often monumental, as if to highlight that the portrayed persons are now being given the focus that was previously denied to them. Their lives were often tragic, due to historical events, but also through personal misfortunes or social exclusion.” – Maaretta Jaukkuri
