Summary
Colour, power and spirit are turned all the way up when the three painters J.F. Willumsen, Olivia Holm-Møller, and Asger Jorn meet in GL STRAND's major summer exhibition, GNIST. The three artists have each in their own way contributed to expressionist painting in Denmark. Now they meet for the first time through their works in an exhibition that presents visual connections and a new gaze at recent Danish art history. J.F. Willumsen (1863-1958), Olivia Holm-Møller (1875-1970) and Asger Jorn (1914-1973) did not know one another personally, but were familiar with one another's work in their time. Olivia Holm-Møller was a lifelong admirer of Willumsen's art, and Asger Jorn was aware of Olivia Holm-Møller's. The encounter at GL STRAND shows that the three artists shared more than their expressionist idiom and intensity of colour. They were all also preoccupied with mankind's relations with place, the cosmos and life's great questions. And they shared an international outlook and travelled to the same places.
