Description

Magnus Gjoen's upcoming exhibition at the Elisabeth & Reinhard Hauff Gallery in Stuttgart delves into the concept of The Grand Tour, focusing on the evolution of souvenirs collected by the English landed gentry during these journeys, particularly in Italy. Gjoen's contemporary remakes of past souvenirs form a diverse body of art, showcasing his creative prowess through dynamic lenticular still-life compositions and reimagined religious objects. The exhibition seamlessly blends tradition and innovation, incorporating archaeological finds and old master paintings with a skillful modern reinterpretation. Gjoen's exploration not only pays homage to The Grand Tour's cultural legacy but challenges artistic boundaries, prompting viewers to reconsider the relevance of historical artifacts in a contemporary context.
