Rome at ARTROM Gallery Guild
ARTROM Gallery has
decided to dedicate the first exhibition in the season
to the presentation of artists who were chosen as
winners or finalists in ARTROM Gallery’s previous
International Art Competitions. ARTROM Gallery
Guild: “We are impressed with your work. For this
exhibition we would be interested in presenting your
prints.” Technical information on the art
works. Technically
they are exclusive fine art prints numbered and signed
by Asbjorn Lonvig, They are
produced according to the10 dogmas stated in Asbjorn
Lonvig’s concept “The World’ Best in Fine Art…Nothing
Less”. About perception
– about symbolism Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia: Perception is the process of attaining
awareness or understanding of the environment by
organizing and interpreting sensory information. All
perception involves signals in the nervous system,
which in turn result from physical stimulation of
the sense organs. English writer and dramatist Douglas Adams (*1952) Everything you see or hear or
experience in any way at all is specific to you. You
create a universe by perceiving it, so everything in
the universe you perceive is specific to you. Swiss psychiatrist C. G. Jung (*1875): The essence of C. G. Jung’s theory on
perception is that much seemingly random variation
in behavior is actually quite orderly and
consistent, being due to basic differences in the
way individuals prefer to use their perception and
judgment. Chinese
Philosopher Confucius (*551 BC): Everything
has beauty, but not everyone sees it. To know is to know that you know
nothing. That is the meaning of true knowledge. When we see men of a contrary
character, we should turn inwards and examine
ourselves.
Perception
I
Perception II
The art work consists of 2 motifs. 2 motifs which seen separately are
seemingly identical. However if you look closer you will
realize that they are not – not at all. Few elements are identical – the theme is
the same but the actual shapes are not. They symbolize different perceptions of
the same incident or object. They symbolize that two or more incidents
or objects will be conceived differently by different
human beings when their sense organs, like sight,
hearing, sense of smell etc. are stimulated. Everything an
individual sees, hears,
smells etc. or experiences in any way at all is specific to that individual. Perception is the outcome of the
individual’s inheritance and experiences to make
things orderly and
consistent. People must accept the individuality of
perception. Perception is individual and
questionable. Perception is not to know. Perception is to know nothing. To know is to
know that you know nothing

Wallpaper etc.
with Asbjorn Lonvig's motifs Multiplying Asbjorn Lonvig Motifs Asbjorn Lonvig has made drafts for wallpaper etc. using his Colorful Simplicity Style. Besides wallpaper the multiplying of motifs can be used for curtains, carpets, tableclouth, chair decoration, fabric (for instance Children's Clothes, bedlinen, art posters, shoes, clocks and much more). In the past he made a couple of designs for curtains. The difficult part of making multiplyed designs is to be aware of the repeat problem. Multiplyed designs often are printed on fabric and paper by using the surface of a rotating cylinder. For each resolution the motif is printed once. The motif has to be designed in a way that the finish of the first resolution matches the start of the second resolution etc. Multiplyed Asbjorn Lonvig Motifs |

42 motifs
inspired by the Tour de France 2011
Every year I look forward to the World's most prestigious cycling race, The Tour de France. My summer holiday is adjusted to the Tour de France schedule and the 21 stages. In 2010 I decided to make a motif inspired by the major events of each stage. At the stage number 12 I simply could not keep up the pace. I had to quit the race. In 2011 I have adjusted my tactics and I start making the motif exactly as the rides cross the finish line. This year I managed to keep up pace and I stayed in the race all 21 stages. By arriving in Paris and by finishing on Champs Elysees I had a great boost. From the last stage In Paris I made 21 motifs (yes, 21 motifs). Read more ____________ Stage

At that time I had worked with art in traditional ways for several years. Before that I was a Software Engineer by IBM. On the spot I dropped traditional ways and started using computer and INTERNET in any context possible. All existing works were converted to digital and all new works were created digitally. Only On line Galleries were used for exhibitions. During the first years I was sincerely mocked by people from all over the world. I was surprised to see the hateful rhetoric. I tried to enter into a dialog, but nothing was to be discussed. Time passed by. Digital art became nearly permissible. I was granted the World Art Award for my work in London, UK. I was granted two more, one in Rome and one in Montreal. I was appointed member of International Society of Artists and Designers in Rome, Italy. Critics compared me to Mondrian, Miró, Kandinsky, and Warhol. The French author Alain Johannes, Paris even compared me to the composer Johann Sebastian Bach, “...it takes a singular intent in the layout, in script, rudimentary forms of brightly colored”.

gallery was not at all fair. Usually galleries share
the risk.To artist's the alternative is massive presence on the INTERNET. This presence is achieved through artist's knowledge of the INTERNET possibilities.

Supporting the
Gay Community in San Francisco Asbjorn Lonvig supports many charity programs, especially when they benefit minority organizations. Recently he was asked to support the gay community in San Francisco by MCCSF, which is a Christian Church Organization supporting Gay's rights. San Francisco is renowned for hosting a lot of gays. It becomes evident when you see all the Gay flags in San Francisco's windows and streets. MCCSF
asked
for
permission
to
use
Asbjorn
Lonvig's
motif
"Golden
Gay"
in
newsletters
etc.
to
announce
the
yearly
Pride Parade.Asbjorn Lonvig believed he could further support this matter by designing an e-shop called "SF GAY SHOP. Asbjorn created products on this shop on the basis of "Golden Gay", 1080 Haight Street, "The SF Gay Area - The SF Bay Area and a motif titled "San Francisco". Originally San Francisco is named after Francis of Assisi, whose comprehension of Christianity meant that he would obviously have supported the gay community. Recently the Oscar winning actress Charlize Theron, who looks like a silly blond, but indeed is not, said in a fantastic Piers Morgan Tonight interview: "It's a divine right," she says of the right to get hitched, which last week was extended to gay couples in New York, and when government starts to tell us who can love and what is good love, whether government or a government built on a certain religion, I do have a problem with that. If you want to bring it back to the politics...I do have a problem with the fact that our government hasn't stepped up enough to make this federal, to make this legal". Read more _________________ More than 50 on-line galleries exhibit Asbjorn Lonvig art works around the world Asbjorn Lonvig has made a web page with the names, countries, and cities of each of the on-line galleries. Note that there are galleries in Buenos Aires, Tokyo, New York, London, Paris, Rome, and Madrid. Read more _________________ Asbjorn Lonvig's Studio Lille Fejringhus, with gallery and private dwelling Lille Fejringhus was built in 1988. It is built in solid, rustic materials where close attention has been paid to every little detail. The building contains a gallery, studio and private dwelling. The house is built in brick with white scoured walls and wooden floors. Different ceilings have been used in the individual sections of the house and the individual sections are on split levels. The house is high-ceilinged - in particular in the gallery. Special glazing has been used in the gallery and family room. In the family room a special glass tower has been constructed which sends light into the house. According to the Chairman of the Board, Neil Kzokoss, Chicago Athenaeum, the house is located "in the middle of nowhere". This is, however, quite deliberate, as the place has primarily been chosen out of consideration for our children's upbringing. The area offers good school facilities, recreational facilities, etc., and it is still less than an hour to Billund's international airport and to the, by Danish standards, large cities of Århus and Odense. The basic point of departure for the building was that it was to form the physical framework for my wife's and my work with requirements for work room and exhibition facilities as well as providing the framework for our private family life where 3 children and 4 turtles would have all the space they required. There is thus a separate children's wing with its own entrance. Here the children have their rooms and a large communal activity room. We have spent much time and effort on designing, drawing and, finally, building a model of the house. The house has been visited by thousands of both Danes and foreigners and it has received both national and international coverage in the press and journals of architecture. Click on the image above and see a video about Lille Fejringhus. ____________________ Inspired by Lille Fejringhus. A journalist even wrote a poem: Journalist Eva Redekop from Berlingske - one of the largest media houses in Denmark - even wrote a poem: In the twilight, seen from the garden, it
looks
like a ship which is rushing forward
out of the dream-blue nothingness carrying sparkling ladies and dark, gallant men of film star stature who waltz with burning passion in the crystal-lit salons without sweating. If
you
only look at the low,
white bed-room part with the small windows, you think of the Mediterranean, and for an instant you are sitting with your back against a sun-warm wall breathing
in the exciting aromas of the air
If,
however,
you look at the house
in the glaring Danish December light and in a completely sober state, well, then it looks like one of those modern churches right in the middle of the brown-knolled, newly developed field in Hedensted near Vejle. ____________________
