�Lesser Pleasures�

24th June - 31st July 2009
Opening: Wednesday, 24th June 6.30 pm - 8.30 pm


Tommaso Corvi-Mora is pleased to present an exhibition of new paintings by Glenn Sorensen.

Glenn Sorensen was born in Sidney in 1968 and lives in �hus, Sweden. The following are excerpts from a text he wrote a few years ago:

"Most of my paintings are of objects in my apartment and the people in my life. I try to paint these things in a direct manner. The distortions that do arise are due to the colours I use. Colours can create a particular mood in a painting and often it is a particular mood that I'm after. It also gives a distance to the subject, which I like. (...)

Most of the paintings in this show are small. This is a format I am comfortable with. Small paintings possess an intensity and intimacy which I like. (...)

If I can give any advice on how to handle this show it would be - just try and enjoy the paintings."



The gallery is open Tuesday to Saturday 11am to 6pm.
For further information or photographic material please call 020 7840 9111

Next exhibition: David Lieske 8th September � 24th October 2009
