Århus: The walls of Åbygård will be a lot more colourful in September
thanks to the works of Lars Stounberg, a Danish artist from the small town
of Odder. Originally an accountant, he took to painting years ago. As an
autodidact water |
colourist,
he has participated in a number of courses, i.a. at the Art Academy of
Aarhus and in the Black Forest of Southern Germany.
The
works displayed at Åbygård are very sensuous and colourful – and |
impressionistic
in their effects. The motifs of his works include Venetian gondolas, the
canals of Copenhagen and French cafées with their special atmosphere and savoir
vivre where outdoor service and red wine play important roles. |
Art
is not entirely new to Stounberg’s family. His pedigree includes
well-known names such as Christian Zacho and Peder Mønsted. Since 1989 he
has arranged many exhibitions in public offices, libraries and art
galleries. |
