artists, the painter Harald Schioldborg Jr. The Exhibition
is on view through September 16, 2009.
About
the artist
Harald
Schioldborg Jr. (1958) grew up in Norway and lives in Asker,
outside Oslo. Until 4 years ago his professional life revolved
around shipping and international transport, out of which
more than 10 years abroad.
Whilst he has
nutured art as a hobby during most of his life, it was only
when he decided to become a fulltime artist, that his expressions
came to real life. He has studied under several well renowned
teachers and has over the years participated in several
group exhibitions as well as hosted solo exhibitions, both
in Norway and abroad. He is now by many considered to be
one of Norway’s most promising contemporary artists.
His pictures
vary in expressions, depending on choice of material and
size – but ultimately colours and light is the main
emphasis.
