KIRKEBY EPHIPHANY is the meeting of the greatest abstract painter in Danish art and the Glyptotek’s extensive collections of art which cover 6000 years. The exhibition KIRKEBY EPIPHANY will present 25 paintings and sculptures spanning the period from 1981 up to the present day.
Per Kirkeby combines the sensual in the raw materials of fabric and colour with great artistic and theoretical insight. His extraordinary ability to bring together form, nature and a wide-ranging web of ideas in painting and sculpture has made him one of the most important figures in modern art.
