ODD NERDRUM - KITSCH PAINTER
Reykjavík Art Museum - Kjarvalsstadir
April 7th - May 27th, 2001
Opening his first exhibition in Iceland, Odd Nerdrum ask his critics to forgive him, since he now considers that he was sailing under a false flag when he described himself as an artist.
Odd Nerdrums challenging statements in the media have won him a place in the public eye. The paintings in this exhibition demonstrate his developments from the mid 1980s, particularly his most recent works in which he provocatively labels himself as a kitch painter.
