Anna-Eva Bergman
Perrotin New York is pleased to present the first survey exhibition in the United States of the late Norwegian-born painter\xa0Anna-Eva Bergman (1909-1987), entitled\xa0Revelation. A central figure in the development of European modernism,\xa0Bergman\xa0abstracted the landscapes of Norway into spiritually transcendent compositions. Despite Bergman\u2019s colorful life and\xa0strikingly original creative output, there has yet to be such a spotlight on her talent \u2014 a situation that is soon to change,\xa0given a major pair of retrospectives set to open at the Mus\xe9e d\u2019Art Moderne de Paris and the National Museum of Oslo in\xa02023.\n\nThis interview is with Thomas Schlesser, the director of the Hans Hartung and Anna-Eva Bergman foundation.\n\nN\xb063-1961 Big universe with small squares, 1961.
