Heia Norge!

Soon after 1968, several Norwegian art pioneers began producing radically simplified paintings with monochrome surfaces, using pure colours and strictly geometric forms. This marked the beginning of Concrete Art in Norway. It is unjust that to this day, many of its representatives have remained little-known not only in Germany but also in their homeland. This publication is the first comprehensive work on the subject, showcasing the huge diversity and quality of the movement in Europe’s northernmost kingdom. It not only focuses on paintings, prints, sculptures and installations from the 1970s to the present day but also examines video, textile art, and photography. Thus, it presents a broad spectrum of Concrete Art in Norway since 1970.
