A multi creative artist - Ole Jørgen Ness

I first became aware of this artist when he was main artist at the Bergen festival "Festspillene" i 2006. I just love his paintings, sculptures and installations!

It´s difficult to categorise his art, but critics often describe him as a surrealist!

He is born in Bergen, Norway in 1961 and I think he represents me and the cultural zeitgeist i´ve developed in. The strange thing is that the artist represent 9 different artists, with different personalities and artistic styles. His works represents all of these alter egos and styles!

I think his art resembles street art and art forms of art that have been developed outside the mainstream art environment. His work can be figural and abstarct, expressive and impressive, natural and non-natural, real and surreal: Independent of tradition, time and space.

Ole Jørgen Ness works have been exhibited all over the world and are now actual at Stenersenmuseet in Oslo, Norway.
