Michael Kvium: Fools
ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum
Århus | DenmarkWhen the remarkable Danish sculptor Michael Kvium came to ARoS with his exhibition entitled Jaywalking Eyes in 2006, the event was one of the most visited in the history of the museum. Altogether 132,000 visitors flocked here in order to experience Kvium and his distinctive artistic idiom.
It is with great pleasure that ARoS can once again introduce a solo Kvium solo exhibition – this time in the form of the series of paintings entitled Fools, which consists of about 200 individual paintings measuring 30 x 30 cm of faces from Kvium’s easily recognisable character gallery. This series of pictures has occupied Kvium’s attention since the beginning of the 1990s, and it is one that he does not yet see himself as being finished with.
