(please scroll down for text in English) MODUS OPERANDI ANNA S�RENSEN - MALTE FISKER - NIELS NEDERGAARD (1944-1987) CUBE: Steen M�ller Rasmussen: Portraits Opening: 18.03.2011 at 5-8 PM Duration: 18.03.-23.04.2011 (Closed 21+22.04.2011) Modus Operandi: Oprindelse: fra latin modus operandi 'm�de at arbejde eller virke p�', dannet af modus 'm�de' og operari 'arbejde'. Betydninger: s�rlig m�de som nogen g�r noget p�. Anna S�rensen har i samarbejde med Galleri Tom Christoffersen arrangeret udstillingen MODUS OPERANDI. Vi har inviteret den unge kunstner Malte Fisker og udvalgt v�rker af Niels Nedergaard (1944-1987). De tre kunstnere repr�senterer tre generationer indenfor det abstrakte maleri med hver deres s�regne bud p� genren. Af Niels Nedergaard vises de m�nstermalerier, han blev kendt for, efter han i 1979 flyttede til Cairo. I sin kunst blev han inspireret af den islamiske ornamentik, og hans malerier st�r frem i stramme kompositioner med st�rke klare farver. Trekanten gentages i en n�rmest manisk gestus ud over den firkantede billedflade, og nye former dannes af farvernes spil i lyset. I m�det mellem linjerne, formerne og farverne udspilles handlingen i Anna S�rensens malerier. Hendes lyriske kompositioner balancerer i en mangfoldighed af farver og gennem en t�t formstruktur. Malte Fisker zoomer lidt l�ngere ud og arbejder med st�rre flader i sine v�rker, hvor inspirationen fra de amerikanske malere omkring bev�gelsen "post-painterly Abstraction" skinner igennem. I en mere afd�mpet farveholdning bygges billedrummet op i h�ndholdte bl�de geometriske former, der giver billederne en sofistikeret kl arhed og �benhed. Tak til Viera Collaro for udl�n af Niels Nedergaard v�rker. CUBE I Cube udstilles Steen M�ller Rasmussens (1953) portr�tter af internationale kunstnere bl.a. Lawrence Weiner, Sophie Calle, Nam June Paik, Sigmar Polke og Cindy Sherman. Anna S�rensen (1968) graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, copenhagen in 1996 and has been at Gallery Tom Christensen since 2002. Niels Nedergaard (1944-1987) was educated at the Academy of Fine Arts, Jutland and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Copenhagen 1966-75. He joined the artist group New Abstraction in 1977. From 1979 until his death he lived in Cairo. Malte Fisker (1988) are attending the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Copenhagen and will graduate in 2012. (Press release in English) MODUS OPERANDI ANNA S�RENSEN - MALTE FISKER - NIELS NEDERGAARD (1944-1987) CUBE: Steen M�ller Rasmussen: Portraits Modus Operandi: Origin: from Latin 'mode of operating', formed by mode 'way or mode' and operari 'work or operating'. Meaning: someone's habits or manner of working, their method of operating or functioning. Anna S�rensen has in collaboration with Galleri Tom Christoffersen arranged the exhibition "modus operandi". We have invited the young artist Malte Fisker and selected works of Niels Nedergaard (1944-1987). The three artists represents three generations within the abstract painting, each with their distinctive idea of the genre. By Niels Nedergaard, we show the pattern paintings he was known for after he in 1979 moved to Cairo. In his art, he was inspired by the Islamic ornamentation, and his paintings emerge in rigid compositions with strong bright colors. The triangle is repeated in an almost manic gesture beyond the rectangular picture plane and new forms is created by a play of colors and light. In the meeting between the lines, shapes and colours the plot of Anna S�rensen's paintings is unfolded. Her lyrical compositions balances in a variety of colors and a very dense shape structure. Malte fisker zooms a little farther out and works on larger surfaces in his paintings, where the inspiration from the American "post-painterly abstraction" painters is revealed. In a more subdued color scheme the pictorial space is formed by handheld soft edged geometric shapes that give the images a sophisticated openness. Thanks to Viera Collaro for kindly lending us the works of Niels Nedergaard CUBE Steen M�ller Rasmussen (1953) shows portraits of international artists among others Lawrence Weiner, Sophie Calle, Nam June Paik, Sigmar Polke and Cindy Sherman.
