THE ART OF COLOURS AND THE FUNEN PAINTERS <\/strong><\/p>\n The Funen Painters quite literally \u2018thought in colours\u2019. They were fascinated by the different colour and light in the course of the day and the experience of that special presence a picture transmits. Equally important were the distinctive colours of their homes in intense shades of blue, yellow, green and red. The art of the Funen Painters is rooted in a dialogue between colour and historical surroundings. Here in Kerteminde you can discover the colours of the Funen painters in the home of the artists Alhed and Johannes Larsen; in Faaborg, in the museum building.<\/p>\n \u00a0The Art of Colours and the Funen Painters <\/em>is a collaboration between Faaborg Museum and the Johannes Larsen Museum, based on a common goal: to shed new light on both well-known and lesser-known works from the museum\u2019s collections by spotlighting colour and the painters\u2019 palette.<\/p>\n \u00a0There are works by Alhed and Johannes Larsen, Anna and Fritz Syberg, Peter Hansen, Jens Birkholm, Christine Swane, and a host of other painters associated with this group of artists. For the project, the two main museums devoted to the works of the Funen Painters \u2013 in Faaborg and Kerteminde \u2013 are exchanging works to devise two voyages through and studies of art history. The colours of these artists have not previously received separate attention. The exhibitions invite visitors to enjoy an illuminating, unpretentious and intuitive approach to their art, based on the special understandings of the colour and pictorial affects that appear in their works.<\/p>\n \u00a0The structure of the exhibition is based on categories of colour in the works of the Funen Painters \u2013 blue, blue-ochre, yellow-golden, red, green, white, complementary colours \u2013 and the colours of overcast weather. The exhibition features oil paintings, a number of pastel works and a room devoted to watercolours. Visitors to the exhibition can also see examples of the colour scheme in the artists\u2019 home and Johannes Larsen\u2019s frescoes. They can explore or make an active contribution with their thoughts and questions about colours. Maybe this exhibition and the art and colours of the Funen Painters can even inspire new colour schemes in people\u2019s homes?<\/p>\n \u00a0The two museums would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to the project\u2019s many collaborators, especially the foundations that have so kindly provided their support, the authors of the publication and the helpful volunteers at both museums.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_cta title=”THE PRACTICALITIES” button_text=”Click Here” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Meeting place<\/strong>: In the “Glashall”<\/p>\n Time :\u00a0 2 pm<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Duration<\/strong><\/em>: approx. 45 minutes<\/p>\n September-June<\/strong><\/em>: Saturdays, Sundays<\/p>\n July-August<\/strong><\/em>: Wednesday, Saturdays, Sundays<\/p>\n Price<\/strong><\/em>: Free when entrance is paid.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_cta][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" INTRODUCTION TO THE SPECIAL EXHIBITIONGet an introduction to the current special exhibition THE ART OF COLOURS AND THE FUNEN PAINTERS The Funen Painters quite literally \u2018thought in colours\u2019.
