NEW PORTRAIT BY JOHN KØRNER
Last night we celebrated the unveiling of a new portrait by John Kørner –portraying Nobel Prize laureate Morten Meldal.
Meldal is Professor of Chemistry and one of Denmark’s most distinguished chemists, awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2022 for his discovery of “click chemistry.”
We’re proud to see John Kørner’s latest portrait now part of the National Portrait Gallery at Frederiksborg, on view on the 3rd floor in the gallery dedicated to 20th and 21st century art.

NOBELPRISVINDER AFSLØRET!!!
En meget fornøjelig event i dag, da @johnkornerstudio portræt af Nobelprisvinderen @morten.meldal blev afsløret på @_frederiksborg Slot - Danmarks Nationalgalleri.
Flot, farverigt, originalt.
Kunsten og videnskaben - Kørner og Meldal mente at fællesnævneren var ‘problemer’ - det er begyndelsen på al kunst og videnskab.
Museumsdirektøren havde i den anledning taget et tørklæde med det budskab på, Kørner havde givet hende for år tilbage. 💛
Tak for et smukt arrangement @ullatofte og for invitationen. 😍 @katjakvaale og jeg nød igen i fulde drag dit slot og selskab.

Ny værkdonation forener Kunsthal Sprittens rødder med spørgsmål om kroppe og hvem vi bygger for og til! 🥃🪜
Billedkunstner John Kørner har skabt kunstværket Gym Bar. En bar, der tårner sig op over gæsterne med en front af gymnastikribber, som man må kravle op i, hvis man vil betjenes. Værket er fra 2015 og har deltaget i en del festlige sammenhænge rundt omkring gennem årerne. Nu får Gym Bar et permanent hjem, når Kunsthal Spritten slår sine røde døre op i 2027♥️
Med vores kunstprogram er vi optaget af at give nyt liv til fortidens fortællinger og bygningens historie som tidligere spritfabrik. Det er Gym Bar et godt eksempel på. Værket har en hel del at sige om fællesskab, drukkultur og hvem, der har adgang og mulighed for at deltage i festen.

13 September John opened his solo exhibition with Victoria Miro Venice. Commenced during a residency with the gallery in Venice, the exhibition is accompanied by a new essay by Max Andrews:
“Hues of gelato or spritz denote a sun-drenched, near-hallucinatory world.
The paintings are rich with association – environmental, atmospheric, chromatic, gastronomic. Elements of Venice’s topography are discernible, its watery aspect evident throughout. Yet, driving forces of fluctuation, mutability and unpredictability serve to unsettle just as reference points are established and understood. Horizons stretch and warp, the ground shifts, rises and falls, defying logic or nature. Meanwhile, heightened, at times pointedly saccharine colours – hues of gelato or spritz – denote a sun-drenched, near-hallucinatory world.”
