Those clever curators at Dulwich PG have done it again. This time, Kathleen Soriano (yes, it's that lady from Sky's Landscape/Portrait Artist of the Year shows) has curated a fabulous collection of Konrad Mägi's work, and I can see why she loves them!
Konrad's work, especially his Baltic and Finnish, landscapes look like textile designs. There's definitely a hint of Klimt in there. His patterns, brushwork and colours is inspirational.
I'm here showing cropped sections of the paintings rather the full works:
His portraits are absolutely gorgeous. Stylised Jazz Age sitters with big eyes and fulsome lips, mostly staring off into the distance and not looking at all jolly.
Finally, here are some pics I took of Kristina's creations:
A really good show – on until 12th July. Easily accessible by train or the P4 bus (Lewisham to Brixton) which stops right outside the gallery gate.
