THE PAINTERLY NOW – PETER HANSEN & MARTIN BIGUM

2018 is the 150th anniversary of the birth of the artist Peter Hansen. Faaborg Museum celebrates this leading figure in the group of Funen painters by allowing one of our strongest contemporary artists, Martin Bigum, to present the aspects of Peter Hansen’s works that continue to make him an important and relevant figure in Danish art history.

The exhibition has been created in close collaboration with the artist Martin Bigum. It compares works by the two artists, Peter Hansen (1868-1927) and Martin Bigum (b. 1966), and facilitates a unique meeting between works by a Funen painter and a contemporary artist.
