Per Kirkeby: Journeys in Painting and Elsewhere

Edited and with text by Siegfried Gohr.
Published by Hatje Cantz

Per Kirkeby may be Copenhagen’s best-known artistic export; born in 1938, he is still based in Denmark. Perhaps due to his doctorate in geology, the metamorphosis of nature has always been a key theme for Kirkeby. Early on, he was influenced by American Pop art and Minimalism, and in recent years, he has become involved with the tradition of Nordic Romanticism. It is this blend of the rigor of Minimalism and the emotional charge of Romanticism that gives his recent, abstract works their frisson. Featuring pieces from a private collection in Switzerland, this publication is an in-depth exploration of Kirkeby’s works from the early 1980s to the present--with the exclusion of his work from the 70s, which was a transitional period prior to the development of his distinctive language. His paintings appear alongside works on paper, including his rarely-seen travel sketches.

Per Kirkeby: Paintings 1957-1977

Essay by Ane Hejlskov Larsen.
Published by Walther König, Köln

This enormous catalogue raisonné will long be the seminal work on the Danish avant-garde artist and Fluxus member Per Kirkeby, best-known for his large, painterly abstractions that recall Scandinavian topography. Also a sculptor, performer, filmmaker, and writer, Kirkeby gets his lavish due here in reproductions of 350 paintings and illuminating biographical and critical context.

Paintings on Masonite

Artwork by Per Kirkeby. Edited by Michael Holm. Text by Mikkel Bogh, Lars Morell, Jacob Wamberg, Jens Hoffmann, Poul Erik Tojner.
Published by Louisiana Museum of Modern Art

Testimony to an artist both searching for a language adequate to his experiences and hunting for experiences that can fill out the available sets and scenery, Per Kirkeby's masonite paintings from the 1960s and early 1970s are rich and many, a strange, flat mix of the provincial and the cosmopolitan--from Brigitte Bardot to the Royal Deer Park in Copenhagen, from minimalistically expressionless stripes to expressive gestures, from grottos and caves full of longing to closed, inapproachable cabins from the western mythology of Hollywood. It is all there, in its own oddly subdued, spatially illusionistic way.

Painter, geologist, writer, poet, sculptor, professor, performance artist, filmmaker, and scenic designer--Danish artist Per Kirkeby might be called a Renaissance man.
