ANDERS MOSEHOLM
Denmark, b. 1959
 
 

Anders Moseholm is a painter of land- and cityscapes whose meticulous arrangements of reality carry with them social and spiritual implications.

He sees the relationship of the city to the countryside to be symbolic, and equal in nature; his interpretations site the city as a place of organic growth as well as being the center of horrible pollution.

 

There is the smell of reality, then, in this group of paintings; but his nature paintings are somewhat different in the sense that they reveal an elegiac, even a tender emotion that suffuses his studies of individual trees and small groves.


Moseholm is not a political artist, preferring to see his work as suggestive of hope in regard to the future. Yet his concern involves his studies of the outdoors with a moral awareness which, even if it is not directly stated, nonetheless makes its clear that the artist possesses a great respect, even a reverence, for the world of woods and valleys, mountains and streams.
