After receiving a doctorate in geology, Kirkeby joined the Experimental Art School in Copenhagen in 1962 and began to develop the visual idiom through which he has consistently explored the metamorpho\u0026shy;sis of nature in a wealth of articulations and media. Kirkeby emphatically considers himself a painter. This context thus informs an examination of his three-di\u0026shy;mensional works dating from the early eighties, which he produced with traditional sculpting techniques and cast in bronze. In addition, over the course of his career the artist has produced a substantial body of prints that rival his works in other media. This cata\u0026shy;logue is the first juxtaposition of numerous drypoints and woodcuts by the artist with a series of bronzes. A number of miniature woodcuts dating from the fif\u0026shy;ties, which were believed to be lost, have been redis\u0026shy;covered and being published for the first time.\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style='FONT-FAMILY: \"TheSansOsF Plain\",\"sans-serif\"; COLOR: black; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: \"TheSansOsF ExtraLight\"'\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style='FONT-FAMILY: \"TheSansOsF Plain\",\"sans-serif\"; COLOR: black; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: \"TheSansOsF ExtraLight\"'\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=SV style='FONT-FAMILY: \"TheSansOsF Plain\",\"sans-serif\"'\u003e\u003cFONT size=3\u003eExhibition: Staatliche Graphische Sammlung München in der Pinakothek der Moderne 3.7.–14.9.2014\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style='FONT-FAMILY: \"TheSansOsF Plain\",\"sans-serif\"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US'\u003e\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49741337428232,"sku":"9783775738989","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775738989_a28f5c39-4f8e-4b89-b2cd-c0e72692fab1.jpg?v=1744124779","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/17643-per-kirkeby","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
