BROOKLYN STREET ART LOVES YOU MORE EVERY DAY
An unexpected surprise this week for Stavanger, for street art, a renowned contemporary artist, and even a group of schoolchildren who found painterly companions during their raucous schoolyard games.
Kjell Pahr-Iversen is lauded worldwide for his distinctive blend of minimalist aesthetics and abstract expressionism, often infusing his pieces with a dynamic interplay of bold geometric forms, intricate patterns, and vibrant palettes. As one of Stavanger’s most cherished modern artists and neighbors, his enduring legacy encompasses decades of achievements, including exhibitions in prestigious galleries and museums and a collection of awards and formal recognitions. His innovative approach and unwavering dedication have garnered esteem from peers and ardent art enthusiasts around the world.
Monday afternoon, along with Stavanger artist Atle Østrem, he made a pretty good impression with a new audience. He says it is good to have support when working on your art “live” and in public.
“Well, I spoke to two boys,” says Pahr-Iversen, “and one of them gave me the honor of saying, ‘I like your painting,’ so I am satisfied.”
More soon on this developing collaborative story happening during the Nice Surprise festival.
