Odd Nerdrum has created a position in the art world which is rivaled only by the classical masters from Caravaggio and onwards. We are proud to cooperate with the gallerist Bengt Tornvall and Poland’s most important museum for contemporary art, the Ujazdowski Castle (CSW), presenting a very unique artist with a global audience. The honorary patronage of the Norwegian Embassy in Poland underscores the fact that this exhibition is an important event. With more than 30 works presented it is Odd Nerdrum’s first solo exhibition in Poland.
