NORWEGIAN ...


Norwegian legal landscapes was an exhibition I had in autumn 2003
 I think it was. All the paintings had a letter enclosed, copies of original
 legal documents and most had been in court.  All the documents were
 shown as if hidden in a glacier were no one would find them, ever.
As it is  a glacier can melt down, we all know that today ... .

Well, what happened was interesting, my lawyer asked me, "Do you
dare do this? " before the exhibition had opened. I just laughed as it
was too late to shoot me. Everything was ready and on it´s feet.
No one could stop the exhibion being shown. Some did try.
A bit later the chairman of the artcenter told me that importent lawyers
in the community would close down the exhibiton!
Suddenly they were outside their court and were without any power.
Did I enoy this, YES!
You know, when you put anything on paper it´s there for ever, the
lawyers did not had this in mind, neither had my family when they
where at their worst. As an artist one knows and loves that, always.

Details, org. size: 35 cm x 37cm, documents on paper, oil and wax, all on canvas.

SHUTUP!

                                               HOLD KJEFT = shut up
                             as now it all starts, is appropriate.    
       Everyone have something clever to say this   
   part of the year. The king and his family are very    
                       sincere and sweet, and kind to us all. An antique rubbish collection.
   The church use their power for all it is worth, the one day in the year the churches are packed with
                                                             praying people.
     Politicians will tell us a lot of nonsense and the   
      people in the streets will tell us about their life 
                                     now, in the end of december.
                                                                    Interesting?
                                                                            Hardly.
                                                                              Food?
                                                                    I am fed up          
                              with all fat food and do not eat it.
               And at last what I do this time of year, the  
               same as I do the rest of the year, nothing!
                                         Sehr schön.

FINGERFOOD...

or food for the fingers is that correct?
 I prefer being correct and know that " an apple a day ... "
  but I say a potato a day keeps all hell away. Potatoes are
  superb if you eat it all, and with a green appetizer like shown.
   A glass or more glasses of red wine are preferable,
good for your health.
 I serve my potato on Magni Jensen´s lovely pottery                               
plate paced on a french plane Pillivuit porcelaine plate                               
adding the correct affix to the divine potato. 
Enjoy!

SOWHAT?

Christmas, in my diningroom it does not look like it?
This room does not invite anyone to anything. Cosy, 
sorry but it is not and has never been cosy. 
Food, what about food?
No one have have ever had a great meal at this table. 
Just two chairs, no, there are more cold, uncomfortable
chairs, good for the eye and not for the bottom. I love
the chairs! No one sits too long at this table ...
and one more thing, I have never owned a tablecloth!

SPEECHLESS...

yes, this really makes me speechless. 
Nothing man made and no sound or smell of civilisation.

Enjoy!
