Glance
- an exploration of the individual facial expression.
To never ever meet another human being, one must have to live on an island. To look into someone else's eye, into someone else's face.
And what do we then see? In the present moment when we meet another person, something very interesting happens. As we observe, judge, become fascinated or repelled or frightened, and we wonder about those eyes in that face we see. We decode the other's mood, and this facial expression soon becomes a part of the body language emphazising what thoughts goes around in the mind of the other. Ultimately we communicate withput any words by using facial expression and mimic.
For all these reasons the face is interesting to dive into. On this occassion the gallery exhibits art works that visually meet us at the same eye level. This exhibition is made to show a wide range of how visual artists express the very face.
Without comparison with normal collections of portraits, more of the paintings in this show has similarities with the genre of portraits. To some extend the liberation is greater, however also more intimate as the face of a person is exhibited.
The exhibiting artists are:
The show opens Friday, August the 5th 2022.

Exhibiting international art: 12.06 – 31.07
WAOU 22 composes the Summer Exhibition of 2022. Galleri NB and the artists represented put effort into making this exhibition an excellent experience.
The show, which is a take over within the gallery’s walls and floors, exposes between three to five art pieces selected by the wellknown artists within the gallery.
This year two new artists have come to join this tradition. All works have been selected with the purpose of sharing with you all the best art crafted by international and Danish artists.

A word about the two artists joining WAOU this year:
Krestine Harboe has, since she graduated at Aarhus Kunstakademi, been occupied with nordic mythology and nature as well as the climate change that we are all facing today. The majority of her works are fully abstract of partly abstract with the touch of being organic. The methods she uses comes in a wide range, whereas one of them is to collect branches and organic material within nature, using these as the foundation for making sculptural art works.
Henrik Kleppe from Oslo is not exactly a new artist within Galleri NB, but has as a matter of fact been absent during the pandemic. His paintings can hardly be put in a box, as they add a certain flavour which can be described as the painter Turner melted into a romantic presence. Kleppe is skilled in organizing the motive and cultivating vibration within it. One might feel like being at home in his works, however surprises lurks within his paintings.
The show opens Sunday June 12 at 14-16 pm. We seem to be accompanied by many of the artists for the opening, which is always comes with a great joy.
At 14:15 pm we will host a presentation and a tour showing the art works.
