Sverre Bjertnaes Theatre & Performing Arts


Beers London presents ‘Silent Conditions’, the first-ever UK exhibition from the much-celebrated Norwegian artist Sverre Bjertnæs.

For Beers, Bjertnæs continues his overarching oeuvre, with each exhibition as kinds of gesamtkunstwerks - artworks that make use of multiple art forms in order to deliver their message. Bjertnæs is increasingly interested in the narratives that form between his shows, claiming he has "grown more and more interested in the narrative that consists between different pieces in a show".Silent Conditions will continue this notion by transforming Beers London into aWunderkammer-like collection of works in wildly differing forms - many the result of collaborations between other artists and himself, such as a work with the aforementioned Melgaard.

Another such collabortation is the film ‘Memories of Us’, a collaboration with Norwegian dramatic writer Arne Lygre. The film typifies the kind of collaborative discourse that increasingly typifies Bjertnæs' practice; the film is a documentation of a performance by Lyre, which itself was based off ofBjertnæs sculpture in a previous show at Galleri Bandstrup, Oslo, in 2016. Other elements include a wooden Chaise Longue, a carpet made by Bjertnæs, and ceramics made especially for the show by him and his mother. However, we also see a painter who is continuously establishing his prowess and redefining his entire practice. There is an affinity to more traditional forms of image making, including a collaboration with Belgian artist Christer Glein wherein both artists worked interchangeably upon the same canvas. This sense of relinquishing a degree of artistic ownership marks a distinct change in Sverre’s approach to artmaking, and here it is a defining characteristic of the exhibition.
