Exhibition of the Week: Astrup Fearnley Museet, Oslo, Norway

Astrup Fearnley Museet, Oslo, Norway: Synnøve Anker Aurdal 

The presentation features works from one of the most famous textile artists in Norway, Synnøve Anker Aurdal (1908-200) from the  Astrup Fearnley Collection alongside key pieces loaned from other collections in Norway, a number of which have rarely or never before been shown in public. Together, these works illustrate the full breadth of Anker Aurdal’s production from the early 1940s to the late 1990s and provide a unique insight into an important and pioneering oeuvre that was widely acclaimed in its time and remains powerful and relevant today.
