Fredrik Vaerslev (b. 1979, Moss, Norway), lives in Drøbak, Norway

The studio practice of Norwegian artist Fredrik Vaerslev ranges from the exposure of work to weather conditions and the outsourcing of production. His paintings, assembled in surprising installations, exemplify conceptual strategies that question the nature of painting today. Recent solo shows were held at Kunsthall (Sankt Gallen, 2017), Kunsthall Aarhus (2016), Le Consortium (Dijon, 2016), Bergen Kunsthall (2016), Museo Marini (Firenze, 2015), CAC (Brest, 2015) and Power Station (Dallas, 2014). The artist is represented by Standard (Oslo), Andrew Kreps (New York) and Gió Marconi (Milan).
