Henie Onstad Art Centre
Christian Skredsvig
Thursday, February 13
Christian Skredsvig (1854-1924) entered Norwegian art history through iconic
images such as Seljefløyten (1889) and Sankthansaften (1886). One hundred
years after his death, the Henie Onstad Art Centre highlights his modern
ambitions in a new major exhibition.
Few Norwegian artists are as popular and versatile as Christian Skredsvig.
Skredsvig enjoyed great success in Paris with his magnificent Salon Paintings,
which thrilled the critics and perhaps inspired the impressionist Claude Monet,
as speculated by this exhibition. Following his success in Paris, he also became
the most prominent Fleskum painter of his time, with well-known works such as
Seljefløyten and Sankthansaften,
