“One of them gave me the honor of saying, ‘I like your painting,’ so I am satisfied.”
Norwegian artist Kjell Pahr-Iversen recalls a simple, yet meaningful chat he had with some school kids frolicking in the playground he had painted. Known worldwide for his unique mix of minimalist and abstract expressionist styles, Pahr-Iversen values getting feedback from unexpected sources. This photo, capturing a moment between him and a young child – their ages separated by roughly 80 years – as they examine a new painting, really highlights the reason behind our work.
