Description

Oslo’s Fornebuporten business and residential district boasts its own sculpture park, Imprints, featuring ceramic works by the Norwegian artist and musician Magne Furuholmen (born 1962). Furuholmen has created totemic sculptures of glazed and unglazed ceramic on an incredible scale—the largest is taller than 19 feet high—and arranged them around the site, placing some in freestanding positions and installing some in granite pools.

Playing with and against the sleek modern architecture of the surrounding Fornebuporten complex, the artist chose self-consciously archaic forms (like amphorae, columns and sarcophagi) and traditional materials and techniques in developing “Imprints.” The sculptures are covered with words, letters and shapes punched or pushed directly into the material surfaces.

Imprints documents this amazing project.
