Per Barclay - Soft Sweet Vortex
The Norwegian artist Per Barclay is presented in a solo exhibition with new and existing works from his 40-year artistic career.
Soft Sweet Vortex seeks to highlight Barclay's interest in the contrast between air and liquid, which creates tension and a deep sense of unease in his works. The exhibition examines the artist's use of solid materials, such as steel and oil, and how his choice of extravagant locations, and recurring formats and motifs, reflect on the interdependence and intertwining of industry and capitalism.
