CARSTEN NASH17 - 31.12.1976

The Danish artist CARSTEN NASH, residing in Sweden and a member of the working groups Drakabygget and Star Artist Cooperation in Copenhagen, exhibits at Galerie S:t Petri from December 17 to 31, 1976.

Carsten Nash presents a diary in the form of about ten collages — a journey into the past — together with a series of works about the Barsebäck nuclear power plant.
The diary — a pictorial narrative called Rosebud — tells of various places where he has lived or merely stayed for a time. The collages are filled with vitality and playfulness, continuing the tradition of Asger Jorn and the Bauhaus Situationists.

Carsten Nash, who has lived for three years in Christiania, the free town in Copenhagen, is highly active in his artistic practice. Over many years he has participated in countless group exhibitions, but the presentation in Lund marks his first solo exhibition — an important event in the history of the Bauhaus Situationists.

At present, Carsten Nash is working as a substitute drawing teacher at the secondary school in Ängelholm.

The exhibition is open weekdays from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m., Saturdays and Sundays from 12 noon to 5 p.m.
