Michael Kvium's solo-exhibition The Noise of Silence (Stilhedens larm), is on view at Oluf Høst Museet until October 21st, 2023.
Michael Kvium has for four decades created works that mercilessly depict the folly of man and all corners of life. The narrative paintings unfold on a stage from the moment theater curtain rises to the second the curtain falls, like the course of life from born to death. The works paradoxically evoke feelings of both enthusiasm and disgust and their expression is situated is both abstraction and realism that can be impossible to shake from one’s consciousness.
