Art Exhibition 19. May – 27. August 2023

 

Exhibition at the Manor House

Mari Slaattelid is one of Norway’s leading contemporary artists. It was not by chance that she was awarded first prize in the Carnegie Art Awards in 2000, and in 2019 was made artist for the Bergen International Festival Exhibition.

Slaattelid is an exceptional colourist. At the same time, she often has a more theoretical perspective, by, for example, initiating dialogues with older artists such as Lars Hertervig or G. B. Tiepolo.

This strategy is remarkably productive, because with this approach she can both articulate something about the older artists she converses with, and her own work.

We look forward to her 2023 exhibition.

 

Digital exhibition at Rosendal Chamber Music Festival

The digital exhibition in the Great Hall is devoted to Max Klinger’s Brahms Phantasie Opus XII from 1888. It consists of an album in which Klinger, in 18 intaglio prints and 23 lithographs, illustrates and expands on five of Brahms’ songs and his Schicksalslied, Opus. 54 for choir and orchestra. Both the song texts and the scores are included. It is an exceptional work, about which Brahms was very enthusiastic.
