Simen Johan will celebrate the launch of his third monograph at the Scandinavia House on Tuesday, June 20th, 2023 at 6:30 PM, with a conversation led by curator, writer, and collector W.M. Hunt, followed by a reception and book signing for the artist. The event is organized jointly by Scandinavia House and the Royal Norwegian Consulate, New York.
From Scandinavia House: "Join us for a discussion with acclaimed artist Simen Johan in conversation with curator, writer and collector W.M. Hunt on the publication of Johan's third monograph, published by powerHouse Books. With a unique creative process that combines candid wildlife photography with digital manipulation, cinematic drama, and a painterly approach, Simen Johan summons a metaphorically dense world into being where human fantasy and nature collide. Representing 15 years of the artist's career and gathered here for the very first time in this deluxe volume are his celebrated uncanny animal portraits, otherworldly landscapes, and psychologically-charged narrative natural scenes."
The event is free and open to the public, although reservations are recommended.
