On Light, Sound and the Experimental - with Anne Katrine Senstad and Jerry Therio

Good Children Gallery is pleased to present a conversation on Light, Sound, and the Experimental, with artist Anne Katrine Senstad and Jerry Therio of New Orleans Neon and the New Orleans Neon Art Museum, on the occasion of Senstad's solo exhibition Mal Educación, curated by Christopher Saucedo.

New Orleans native Jerry Therio is a legendary neon artist, innovator and neon collector who has collected, restored and designed neon since 1978. He uses neon, new and vintage, as a medium for fine art, in full scale art installations and gallery exhibitions that have earned critical acclaim. Therio has produced neon for theatre, performance, and numerous movie sets filmed in New Orleans. He has created neon for New Orleans Carnival Krewes’ floats, such as Endymion, Bacchus, and Orpheus, as well as improvisational site specific neon installations for public art, and “Neon Sound Performances” in collaboration with jazz musicians and groups such as Sun Ra Arkestra and Kool and the Gang.

Anne Katrine Senstad is a Norwegian interdisciplinary artist based between New York and Oslo. Her practice includes installation art, spatial light sculpture and site specificity, photography, video and film, and text based art, with a focus on the phenomena of perception and the cognitive system in response to the properties of light, sound, and color. She is concerned with sensorial aesthetics and ethics - the transformative and transcendental ideas of art and philosophical practice. Mal Educación is the second solo exhibition by Norwegian artist Anne Katrine Senstad at Good Children Gallery as part of her ongoing research project, Capitalism in the Public Realm. The exhibition explores the intersection between light and text to address critical subjects of ethics, agency, citizenry, and allegory.

KONSTELLASJONER

November 30 - December 22, 2023

Årets siste utstilling, Konstellasjoner (Noël), er en kollektiv presentasjon av en gruppe kunstnere som på hver sin måte evner å berøre, og begeistre. Gjennom ulike medier som maleri, fotografi og neon, evner de å male med lys, slippe det inn på gløtt og i strimer på forunderlig, og forlokkende vis. De forvandler sorg og ensomhet til poesi og skjønnhet. Lyset som kraft, energi og kjærtegn, profant og kanskje litt sakralt, er en gylden tråd som binder utstillingen sammen i en dialog mellom verk og mellom verk og visningsrom. På samme måte er fargen et vakkert fundamet; i usynlige overganger, todelte kontraster, stablet på hverandre, i lag på lag, eller i biter av mosaikk. 

Den tradisjonellle julefeiringen handler gjerne om å ta frem det gildeste av alt; duker, dekktøy, levende lys, klær og gaver. Konstellasjoner (Noël) er feiring av lys og varme, med rom for refleksjon og ettertanke, et møte mellom kunst og publikum, der de fineste verk henger på vegg og skulpturer er varsom plassert på sokler.

Mørketiden vekker lengsler om lys, hvor lyset blir et symbol på bedre tider. Snart snur solen, la oss håpe på mer lys på den andre siden av vår lille verden også

SKOG ART SPACE - NORWAY

SKOG Art Space is not a gallery, not a studio, 

not a collection, but something unique in between. 

SKOG means FOREST in Norwegian.

The Winter Exhibition 2023

December 8 2023 - January 13, 2024

The Winter Exhibition at SKOG, presents 

six artists, each with a distinct and clear 

sense of expression. The artists are in different 

phases of their artistic practice, ranging 

from an art student to established artists. 

However, they all have in common a clear

sense of composition with a unified thematic 

concern with the human form, cognition 

and expression. Through media such as 

sculpture, painting, collage, photography 

and printmaking, the exhibition shows 

a narrative exploration of themes as 

body, memory, materiality and perception.
