Kringsýni
Bjarne Werner Sørensen
Solo Exhibition
The National Gallery of the Faroe Islands
September 14, 2018 - January 13, 2019
The exhibition covers the last 20 years of Bjarne Werner Sørensen's art and his use of different media. The way in which the exhibition pans across this period is also the basis for the title the artist has chosen for his exhibition: Kringsýni, a Faroese word invented by the artist. It means "to look around, to let one's gaze wander from one thing to another," suggesting the artist's need to take stock. But Kringsýni is also an invitation to visitors to see the exhibition as variations on an overall theme. This is also reflected in the fact that it was the artist himself who meticulously planned the presentation.
