  • Armory Focus Annex : The Nordic Countries in the Gallery

    Mar 3 12:00PM // Gallery

    Ace hosts an art installation by two inspiring young Norwegian artists -- Magnhild Øen Nordahl and Vegard Vindenes -- as an annex to the 2012 Armory Show's Focus: The Nordic Countries exhibit. 

    Armory Focus is the annual Armory Show's section devoted to leading galleries in the international arts community. This year, Armory Focus turns its gaze to the Nordic countries, featuring art curated by ground-breaking galleries in Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Iceland.

    Curated by TagTeam Studio from Bergen, Norway for our gallery space, this exhibit features works by Magnhild Øen Nordahl and Vegard Vindenes.

    Magnhild Øen Nordahl works with sculpture and installation where painted wood, concrete and industrial materials are used in precision-built structures. Her timber-based sculptures make deliberate use of a painstaking process exploring the role of craftsmanship, tools and machinery in contemporary art and architecture.

    Vegard Vindenes works primarily with painting in close dialogue with structural spaces and models, utilizing physical space as a conduit for exploration of personal experience, memory and observation.

    This exhibit is free and open to all. Add it to your calendar on Facebook.
