Tabte … 2011
The exhibition Credible Lies [Troværdige løgne] stands as a testimony to Ivan Andersen’s desire to throw himself into new experiments and rethink painting’s potential to create space and at the same time shake the viewer’s preconceived notions of spatial constructions. It has always been Andersen’s hallmark to work in the tension between figuration and abstraction, and the exhibition’s compositions also include the artist’s peculiar motifs, blending monochrome colour surfaces with office buildings and other recognisable elements from the cityscape.
