Finally came the fine weather – ah I have been longing for this!
A perfect day for experiments with cast in concrete – something I’ve never tried before… Now it should just be allowed to dry slowly. I’m so curious as to how clear an imprint to expect.
Working hard to finish on time: New Artmoney for New York!
First we take Manhattan…

Glimpses from the vernissage of hem : HJEM : koti : heima : angerlarsimaffik at KunstCenter Silkeborg Bad on Saturday, April 6.
Artists and guests were welcomed by Director of the Art Centre Iben From - and the exhibition was opened with an intro by artist Steen Rasmussen. Later the program unfolded with artists’ talks and performances by respectively Susanne Helweg, Anne Bjørn, Rita Marhaug and Jessie Kleemann.
The exhibition is on display in Silkeborg till August 11, where it will go on tour – in first place – to Nuuk, Tórshavn and Reykjavik…

Often wonder how much time I spent working outside, outside / next to the “actual artistic work” …
I’m talking about the logistic part: To plan, schedule, make call, write emails, organize papers into folders, make lists, keep track of appointments, and communication. In short: How many hours at the desk – and how many hours in the studio with brush and paint bucket at hand.
Don’t get me wrong. I also enjoy that part of life. Sometimes I just find the balance a little too … well … unbalanced.
But next week I’ll be “out of office”. Looking forward to vegetate, recharge and maybe get some points and lines into the my sketch book.
NB. Images from a recent course here at my place. Teaching is a strong energizer (= new energy and inspiration). It always fill me with a strong desire to get started myself …
Last Friday we gathered to have an artists’ books workshop at ArtCenter Silkeborg Bad. A great day for mutual exchange of ideas, know-how and inspiration! I’m so full of new ideas for the next steps now.
Thank you to Giuli, Lis, Joe, Susanne, Bodil, Bente, Rita, Marianne, Dorthe and Anne – for open minded sharing and high spirits! 
Setting up hem : hjem : koti : heim : heima : angerlarsimafik at Art Centre Silkeborg Bad last week – in enjoyable and instructive collaboration with Susanne (Helweg), Marianne (Laimer), Lis (Rejnert Jensen) and Joe (Ingvartsen).
It has been a lot of hard work – but also very pleasent to be with collegues – and to experience the professinal attutude and level of mind we experienced from staff and managers. And best of all: I feel very pleased about the result. Really think we managed to create an aesthetical, beautiful and interesting setting.
Also Dorte (Bøtker) and Anne (Bjørn) passed by to deliver their works and to give a helping hand with the binding and stamping of catalogs. I’m very satisfied how they appear; that’s quite casual, a little rustic – and very handmade. The idea has been to let the catalog for an artists’ books exhibition be a sort of artists’ book in itself.
More pictures will also follow here and at our project blog – from the Artists’ workshop Friday – and the opening, artists’ talks and performances Saturday. Also more photos at Lis’ blog.
NB. TV2′s Guide (fast forward to 3:29).
One week till the OPENING of

The exhibition openes at 11 am with a welcome by director of the Art Center Iben From – and opening speech by artist Steen Rasmussen.
At 1 pm we have a small program scheduled with performances and artists talks by Jessie Kleemann (Gl), Rita Marhaugh (No), Susanne Helweg (Dk) and Anne Bjørn (Dk).
