Concert at Galleri Duerr

Our newest corporate member, Galleri Duerr, is thrilled to invite Malou Harris Meilink and Mika Takehara to the gallery for a captivating evening concert, set against the backdrop of Karin Lind's exhibition, Under ögonlocket/Behind the Eyelid.

The exhibition  Behind the Eyelid newly produced works, including paintings, sculptures, and charcoal drawings. The paintings, created with water-soluble oils on sheets of aluminum and brass, possess a distinct luster and character that harmonize beautifully with the aluminum-cast sculptures.

As part of a scholarship, the artist spent last winter in South Africa, translating her experiences from this inspiring journey into her art. These experiences, impressions, and reflections are evident in the Behind the Eyelid exhibition, alongside the artist’s personal reflections on losing a loved one, which are thematically woven into the works.

Entering Karin Lind’s visual world is an adventure, evoking a post-surrealistic universe where the boundary between the visible and invisible is thin, and death becomes a prerequisite for life, just as life is for death. In many of her works, we encounter solitary figures, creatures journeying to or from various places, running water, and staircases that seemingly lead from one realm to another.

In her artistic practice, Karin Lind relies heavily on intuition rather than sketches, imparting a directness to her works. They are vibrant and playful, with imagination given free rein, allowed to flow on its own terms.

The entire exhibition is characterized by a free-flowing nature, where the artist’s experiences and perceptions merge seamlessly with intuition, visualized through her art. There are no boundaries or hints of perfectionism and pedantry—only a dynamic, organic flow rooted in extensive artistic experience and practice. This spirit reflects Lao-tzu’s sentiment: “Man at his best, like water... / Loves living close to the earth, / Living clear down in his heart.” This essence is vividly embodied in Karin Lind’s art.

While an RSVP isn't required, we'd be delighted to hear if you can join us. Please drop us a line if you’re able to attend, to info@galleriduerr.com
