Darkness Descends: Norwegian Art Now delves into the uniquely Norwegian style of neo-romanticism in contemporary art. The exhibition will bring together a multi-generational group of visual, performance, sound, and video artists to explore a fascination with darkness that is inspired by mythology and a close relationship to nature. Curated by Christina Vassallo, the exhibition will take place during The Armory Show, March 5 – 8, 2009. Darkness Descends is the fourth installment in a series of MAS*H shows produced by Cottelston Advisors to coincide with major art fairs.
Participating artists are: Thora Dolven Balke, Ole Martin Lund Bø, Halvor Bodin, Marianne Hurum, Anki King, Ingvild Langgård, Sverre Malling, Are Mokkelbost, Trine Lise Nedreaas, Rune Olsen, Alexander Rishaug, Elise Storsveen, Kjersti Vetterstad, Kira Wager, Marius Watz, Jana Winderen, Monica Winther, and Munan Øvrelid.
