Odd Nerdrum working on “Loving couple”.

“Loving couple” on the wall.

 


Odd Nerdrum as a printmaker

In his adolescence, Odd Nerdrum saved money to buy "The American Woman", an etching Edvard Munch made while traveling by train to Paris as a young man. However, Nerdrum's mother took his savings and used them to invest in stocks. Shortly thereafter, Nerdrum made his first etchings. Among them motifs that he would later transfer to the canvas — "Self-portrait in Dressing Gown" being one example. As a draughtsman, Munch was a master, and Nerdrum wanted to put claim to the same title with his production of lithographs. One of the first printmakers he worked with, had previously worked for Munch. The printmaker's remarks about Munch confirmed Nerdrum's suspicion of an incorrigible perfectionist.
For Nerdrum, as with Munch, each edition of prints is to be considered as an independent work, often with the goal in mind of improving the starting point (the painting).
In the 2000s, Nerdrum developed a printing method at Kjell Raugland's printing house by drawing on sandblasted glass. This technique has received the technical title "glass print" and has been the marker for Nerdrum's production of lithographs ever since.

    • “Painter of the North”: Odd Nerdrum Exhibiting in Warsaw

      11th August is the date set for the opening of Odd Nerdrum’s solo exhibition at the Uljazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art (UCCCA) in Warsaw. The exhibition is titled Painter of the North and features many recent paintings. The UCCCA writes in their press release statement that: “Odd Nerdrum has become one of the most accomplished Norwegian painters since Edvard Munch. A defining moment in his early years was seeing Rembrandt’s painting The Conspiracy of Claudius Civilis in the National Museum of Fine Arts in Stockholm.” Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art. Photo: Filip Kwiatkowski – In Nerdrum’s paintings, Mankind is situated in an abysmal, mythological world beyond what we usually associate with ‘history’, time and space, says Jon Eirik Lundberg, who is curating the exhibition. He calls Nerdrum’s imagery “a completely new world and a language of signs and symbols,” imitating myths and tales. – But this is not some earlier version of mankind; these people are us, Nerdrum’s contemporaries, only stripped of our modern outfits. Time is absent. They are inhibiting ‘an eternal present’. Not post-apocalyptical, not after some global destruction, but rather as we live today in our essence, Lund continues. The exhibition will be on view from 11th August through 10th of December 2023.
