Emotion Poses

La Fiambrera presents EMOTION POSES, the third solo show by Norwegian artist LASSE SKARBØVIK in Madrid. This time, Skarbøvik brings together a dozen new original paintings specifically for La Fiambrera, accompanied by very short run limited-edition silkscreen prints. A celebration of colour, full of optimism and good vibes.

The show is an ode to the divine and the ordinary aspects of human relationships that invite us to laugh at our worst traits and to celebrate the best we’re capable of giving. The exhibition title refers to the peculiar abstract faces of his universe with fresh twists of humour and emotion.

The painting medium is paper that the artist has used on previous pieces or drafts that are given new life through artistic recycling. A beautiful way to imbue something that once had one meaning with new significance. True to his style, Lasse continues to break new ground, both in the colours he uses and in the way he expresses the ironies, contradictions and more sensitive aspects of human nature.

Lasse Skarbøvik has been collaborating with La Fiambrera Art Gallery for over a decade. He has participated in numerous group exhibitions in addition to his solo shows. His style can be described as minimalist, straddling a fine line between abstract and figurative using a limited colour palette in both the original works and silkscreen prints. He is a sought-after artist that works across all fields including publishing, corporate design, large-format projects and more. Lasse is a co-founder of the Stockholm Illustration group and has received numerous awards and accolades in both Europe and the United States that have established him as one of the most prominent designers in Scandinavia.
