Benny Droscher at Blindarte contemporanea, Naples, Mar 20 - May 10

Exhibition Description:

Benny Dröscher thinks of his work as meditation on time and eternity. His compositions, with trees tapering away into the distance, suggest that the viewer is lying beneath a fantastical forest canopy gazing into the abyss searching for meaning.

Dröscher has also created some new sculptures which are placed between reality and representation. He aims to evoke doubt in his viewrs about how the world is turning, and whether we're really seeing and interpreting it correctly.

Description:

The look of a sky that is looked at (1), 2008. Acrylic on canvas, cm 150 x 200cm

The artist lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark. Benny Droscher's artworks are included in numerous public collections namely the Malmö Konstmuseum, Sweden, Arken, the Museum of Modern Art, Denmark; the Danish National Gallery, Copenhagen, Denmark, to name a few. His work resides in private collections in: Great Britain, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Norway and Denmark.

“I am so tired of being an atheist” is the title of Dröscher's recently commissioned sculpture for the city centre of Copenhagen. Here the artist tackles one of the most significant concepts of his artistic research: the relationship between art and our desire to believe in something beyond the everyday.
