DESCRIPTION
With the exhibition Ontemporary Rt, Galleri Christoffer Egelund is proud to present Morten Steen Hebsgaard’s first major solo exhibition in the gallery. The title is inspired by the copycat industry, where, for instance, a mediocre watch maker will transcribe a brand like Rolex into Olex. Ontemporary rt thus refers to the conflict between original and copy.For this exhibition, Morten Steen Hebsgaard has formulated a set of dogma rules: 1) all materials must be bought from IKEA, and 2) the works must copy art history. This has enabled Hebsgaard to select his own personal “darlings” and to reinterpret them, misunderstand them and challenge them in his own works. This has resulted in a series of exciting sculptural objects, where such artists as Kasimir Malevitj, Piet Mondrian and Andreas Slominski and others are all re-edited in a suggestive and humorous fashion.
