Galleri GEO presents : Magnus Gjoen "I'll cry when I'm done , by cyberkid on Apr 12, 2016 19:25:40 GMT 1,

Galleri GEO is proudly presenting Magnus Gjoen latest body of works on April the 15th.
The exhibition named "I'll cry when I'm done killing” will take place from 18.00.- 21.00. the opening night. The show contains a mix of limited edition prints and originals on perspex.

Magnus Gjoen’s work examines how to change peoples relationship and preconceived notions of objects. Something which is potentially extremely destructive can be made into beautiful yet fragile objects of art. It’s this misconception of beauty which Magnus Gjoen wants us to see in a different light, being it weapons, animals or the human race itself. The latter which is capable of creating immense beauty but also capable of destroying it all. Taking inspiration from street and pop art and juxtapositioning it with fine art, he creates new and modern takes on old masterpieces or manipulates something powerful and strong into something fragile but beautiful. He often questions the correlation between religion, war, beauty & destruction in his art.
