Hans Scherfig. Myths and dream<\/span><\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

As the spring\u2019s big special exhibition is approaching, we invite everyone of all ages to get to know or revisit Scherfig\u2019s wonderful universe. The exhibition is a tribute to the painter and author \u2013 and also to nature and the biodiversity that are currently under threat. Most of his work at the exhibition, which focuses on Scherfig\u2019s use of myths and dreams, is inspired by ancient mythology and the Old Testament.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The painter and author Hans Scherfig (1905 \u2013 1979) had never seen an actual jungle or savanna in his life. Throughout his life, however, he dreamed of elephants, giraffes, rhinos and monkeys in their natural habitats. His yearning to become a globe-trotter shines throughout his best-known novels such as <\/span>Stolen Spring<\/em> and <\/span>The Missing Bureaucrat<\/em> \u2013 and manifests freely in his brightly coloured paints of primeval forests. Scherfig\u2019s paintings are devoted to friendly and peaceful herbivores \u2013 in a world devoid of predators and killing instinct.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Scherfig\u2019s imagination was nourished at the Botanical Garden and Copenhagen Zoo. Africa, Asia and South America were very far away when he went to school, but today, we fear that nature\u2019s greatest creatures will also soon be far away in time. Scherfig\u2019s animals are currently highly endangered, and we must seek to appreciate their existence with love and respect for as long as we can.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201d (\u2026) Trods sit notorisk d\u00e5rlige syn havde Hans Scherfig et s\u00e6rligt blik for den harmoni, der kan opst\u00e5 mellem junglens vilde dyr. Nivaagaards Malerisamling viser os, hvordan vi ikke glemmer dyrenes aktuelle kamp for at overleve\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 \u201d (\u2026) Udstillingen giver mulighed for at se p\u00e5 Scherfigs billeder med nye \u00f8jne, og her kan man opdage, at han er ikke bundet til sin tid. Hans st\u00e6rke farver og forenklede kompositioner har bevaret en friskhed og vitalitet. Der er store panoramiske billeder p\u00e5 udstillingen, som det virkelig er en forn\u00f8jelse at se p\u00e5.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201d (\u2026) Flere generationer af danskere er vokset op med Hans Scherfigs billedsyn af elefanter, tapirer, giraffer og n\u00e6sehorn. Som Orfeus fra den gr\u00e6ske mytologi spillede han p\u00e5 sin kunstneriske lyre for dyrene, s\u00e5 de fandt en form for fred for blik og tanke. Han lyttede til dyrene, og de s\u00e5 tilbage p\u00e5 ham med deres opm\u00e6rksomme sm\u00e5 \u00f8jne.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201c(\u2026) Den giver os h\u00e5b og tr\u00f8st i en tid, hvor alt synes truende og uoverskueligt. Hans Scherfigs (1905-1979) billedverden af junglesyner tilbyder os et paradis, hvor dyr f\u00e6rdes frit og fredeligt mellem hinanden.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 \u201d (\u2026) Udstillingen p\u00e5 Nivaagaard har samme kvalitet som Scherfigs b\u00f8ger. Der er ingen forst\u00e5elsesbarrierer. Ung som gammel kan indfanges af hans univers, for hvor forfatteren Scherfig kunne v\u00e6re barsk, er de truede dyrearters maler mild og munter. Udstillingen kan derfor varmt anbefales til alle generationer \u2013 og f\u00f8lges i \u00f8vrigt op af en foredragsr\u00e6kke i samarbejde med WWF.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
