COVER VERSION – Lars Breuer, Sebastian Freytag, Guido Münch
The KONSORTIUM artists Lars Breuer, Sebastian Freytag and Guido Münch have created an exhibition entitled Cover Version. The piece consists of works from the collection of the Maire Gullichsen Art Foundation and works by members of the KONSORTIUM.
The curated selection includes Unto Pusa’s Ympyrä neliössä (Hommage a Delaunay II) [Circle in a square (Hommage a Delaunay II)], Sam Vanni´s graphic series Neljän värin etydejä I-VIII [Four Colour Etudes I-VIII] and a painting by Lars-Gunnar Nordström, Dimensionaalinen tilanne [Dimensional Situation], on which the KONSORTIUM artists have then commented through their own works.
The title Cover Version is an allusion to the practice of creating new versions of existing songs in pop music. Cover Version is a vehicle for the KONSORTIUM artists to reflect upon influences and connections to the history of art – in particular to the collection of the Maire Gullichsen Art Foundation.
