Peter Liashkov has been thoughtfully painting and drawing the human figure for more than two decades, and so in this new body of work there is an abundance of subtle peculiarities which his years of careful observation have enabled him to express.Through these paintings Peter Liashkov shows us the visual eloquence of which he is capable, beyond appearances and anatomy.

This exhibition of approximately 75 works by 13 of Norway’s leading artists provide a unique perspective on the vitality and originality of Norway’s thriving contemporary art scene, as well as the strong connection between the visual arts in Norway and the country’s extraordinary landscape. All of the works in the exhibition are drawn from the extensive collection of Her Majesty Queen Sonja of Norway, who has curated Norge with the assistance of collaborating curator Hellandsjø, who is currently Head of Special Projects at the National Museum of Norway and will assume the post of Director of the Henie-Onstad Art Center in March 2005. Knowledgeable and active collector as well as an important patron of contemporary art, Queen Sonja has amassed an extensive collection - comprised largely of landscapes - that reflect her deep knowledge of art history as well as her enthusiasm for the geography and nature of Norway. The artists represented in Norge - Marianne Heske, Olav Christopher Jenssen, Thomas Pihl, Ørnulf Opdahl, Knut Rumohr, Bjørn-Sigurd Tufta, Kåre Tveter among others - include both established and emerging artists spanning 50 years of Norwegian art.

Robert Rauschenberg has had the capacity of being one of the most important contemporary artists of the 20th Century - and still continues to be until this very day. Throughout his life Rauschenberg has been cutting edge - looking at one of his photo collages exceeds a whole exhibition of contemporary photography. His works are of America. Not the usual soap operas and surface culture, his works portray the anti-commercial and the everyday America. The powerful visual effect of these images is the aesthetic orchestration of the multiple images of reality, far removing the works from mere documentary.

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.
