Huge Scandal has
struck the Hans Christian Andersen 2005 celebrations. 2005 has until this
day - 13 June 2005 - not been "a huge
cultural year devoted to Andersen, both in Denmark and worldwide".
Read more.Danes are fed up with 2005 and Hans Christian Andersen. No Danes are participating in the celebration activities. A huge scandal has struck the Hans Christian Andersen 2005 Foundation. The scandal has been front page news for several days recently. Due to a not profitable Grand Opening on the 2nd of April 2005, where it was found out that Tina Turner was hired as a last minute stand in for a substantial amount of money, about which the members of the board of the Hans Christian Andersen 2005 Foundation had no knowledge. The chairman of the Hans Christian Andersen 2005 Foundation, Mayor of Odense, Anker Boye, decided to resign on 30 May 2005. And. Secretary General Lars Seeberg has resigned as Secretary General after mutual agreement! There will be implemented a 5.8 million DKK cutback on projects. The cutbacks will affect about 20 projects. There will equally be implemented a 3.8 million DKK cutback on administration and marketing. What a nice start! Read the message from the Board. We hope, however, for business as usual... We hereby announce the logo and poster motif to the musical "The Swineherd" in 2006. ![]() One of those are the Hans Christian Andersen Festival Plays in the Village of Funen in Odense. Every year a group of children performs a musical based on one of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales. In 2006 the fairy tale is "The Swineherd". We hereby announce the logo and poster motif to this musical 2006. Made by Asbjorn Lonvig - as usual. "Completely Excellent", Chairman of the Hans Christian Andersen Festival Plays, Jorn Erik Schreiner said about the 2006 logo. See the Swineherd, two of his pigs. See the ladies-in-waiting behind the fence. A lady-in-waiting is checking all the fuss through a hole in the fence. And it might be the emperor to the right behind the fence? Or, is it the princess? |
Lille
Fejringhus Gallery Probably Northern Europe's most fascinating artist's house. The five winged building contains gallery, studio and private dwelling, including office and library. Lille Fejringhus was built in 1988. It is built in solid, rustic materials where close attention has been paid to every little detail. According to the Chairman of the Board, Neil Kzokoss, Chicago Athenaeum, the house is located "in the middle of nowhere". The middle of nowhere is "Lille Fejringhus", 43 Fejringhusvej, 8722 Hedensted, Denmark. You can visit the galley in the middle of nowhere or on this web page. Or both. Read more. |

Blue
Sky - New York The painting "Blue Sky" is acrylic on canvas, 201 x 139 cm - that is 79.2 x 54.8 inches. It is inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright's masterpiece on Fifth Avenue. Guggenheim museum. Amazing how Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture is contemporary. In Chicago I saw several of his houses that looked as if they were built yesterday. One was from 1909. The very blue sky symbolizes divinity. Frank Lloyd Wright had a rare gift, sure. Divinity? "Blue Sky" is part of a number of paintings inspired from New York. An art dealer from New York asked me to let me inspire from perception. Read more. |

Appointed
member of International Society of Artists and Designers. The ARTROM GALLERY GUILD in
Rome, Italy.
![]() www.artromgallery.com The purpose of THE GUILD is: - showcase and promote outstanding artists and designers through the strong online presence of ARTROM Gallery worldwide. - to provide a support system for the advancement of those who demonstrate a passion and dedication for their chosen field of interest. Dear Asbjorn Lonvig, The Staff at ARTROM Gallery has met to view
your images.
We have also
visited your web sites and entered immediately into your world.
We are impressed with your ability to
simplify a concept into an image and concentrate it,
to include only what is necessary. In evaluating your work for its strong graphic content, we became aware of the size of the originals; they are all quite large and are acrylic on canvas. In viewing your works we discussed not only
their graphic content, but discussed them as paintings, as objects unto
themselves. Knowing that the images exist somewhere as
objects of that dimension is far different than looking at images
stored in some computer, regardless of how they were
created. One can appreciate the graphic illustrative/informative
quality of an image on a computer screen, but it stops there, until
you know more about the image as it exists in "real
life", and this adds another dimension to the work. It also
adds credibility to the commitment the artist has made to the image.
We feel that you believe in your commitment as an artist. This is one of the aspects we look for in our GUILD Members. When one believes in himself the message is clear. We are also interested in your
"Manifesto" below.
It's
about the fact that the art market is predicted to grow 3,5 times
because of the Internet.
It's about my decision to stake everything on the internet. It's about concentrating my efforts on the internet when it comes to sales. It's about my decision to make new standards and challenge art traditions by making my drafts on a computer and exhibit the drafts. And insist upon that a computer is nothing but a new tool. And insist upon that using a computer is as worthy as not doing it!!! Worthier???? We
would like to help you accomplish these things, and welcome you to
become a Member of ARTROM Gallery GUILD.

New exhibition in Tokyo, Japan at Artday Network ![]() artday.org the International site in English jp.artday.org the site in Japanese Artday is a worldwide celebration of art scheduled to take place each year on the second day of July. Why July 2nd? Because it's at the very center of the year just as art is at the very center of the word "earth" as well as a central element in so many events in our lives. (Another neat trick: take the "h" in earth and put it up front and what do you get? Heart! Art's gotta have heart! Art's in our hearts?) The creators of artday, the artday network, are dedicated to democratic principles and faithfully ignore all differences in age, sex, race, religion and nationality. July 2 is off center in leap-years, so there are no artdays when February gets its extra day. And. Artday Network is among other things an online gallery with online exhibitions, there 2 of mine: Asbjorn Lonvig Gallery and For Children. Artday Network has it's own World ArtNews for which I have become a columnist. It too has Artist Salon, art Blog, Art Classified Ads, Event Calendar, Competition Guide, Art Site Directory and ArtistsBlog Headlines. Sure an interesting portal.

An Asbjorn Lonvig Channel (..or Corner) New project about writing articles and other news to specific online galleries, newsletters, newspapers, magazines, and portals in general. In cooperation with CEO Craig Cornwall from artistsrepublik.com I have developed a new project. I build a blog with a logo for a certain client, I build it in www.blog.com, which generates RSS and ATOM news feeds and in the right side of the blog I create a link and a description of the client - here artistsrepublik.com. When the blog has been submitted
to directories they are in many
cases forwarded to search engines.
Single posts are often found via
search engines.
Therefore I place the
artistsrepublik.com's banner and link in the top of each post.
Like this:
I'll post to the blog with articles and other news as often as I have agreed with the client. Craig Cornwall ask me to do it whenever I have any relevant news. Even if my articles often are controversial they of course must not be detrimental to the client in any way. Comments and questions from visitors might then create an Interactive Lecture like situation. See Asbjorn Lonvig's Corners. See Asbjorn Lonvig's 1st Corner to ArtistsRepublik.com in Cambridge. See Asbjorn Lonvig's 2nd Corner to Art & Design Online in Los Angeles. See Asbjorn Lonvig's 3rd Corner to Gallery Direct in Pennsylvania.

PEOPLE AT WWAR.COM Markus Kruse, President and Founder ![]() "When I first started to work with the Internet in 1993, I was struck by the lack of visual art within that medium. So, I started collecting a few art links and began publishing my curated exhibitions on the early www as part of any exhibition program. All of a sudden national exhibitions were propelled into an international arena. Some retrospective exhibitions such as 'Roy-Lichtenstein Pre-Pop' actually had more visitors from via the web. I began to understand the impact and importance of the globalization of the visual arts via this medium. I guess it started snowballing from there... I love the ever changing nature and challenges of this type of work." Markus' indepth knowledge of the visual arts as well as his expertise in Internet activities bring together two areas that often cannot be found when taking a scrutinizing look at Internet based Arts companies. Markus holds a B.A. in Art History from Wittenberg University, an M.A. in Arts Administration/Art Education and a Ph.D. in Art Education from The Ohio State University. When
not at work you can find Markus on the Outer Banks in North Carolina
windsurfing, traveling back to his original hometown Berlin, Germany,
or riding his R90, and often on a ladder restoring his over 110 year
old house. |

by Asbjorn Lonvig I dream that I never more have to exhibit far from home. I dream that I never more have to exhibit in foreign countries. I dream that I never more have to make art works that are not sold on beforehand. I dream that I never more have to print brochures and flyers. I dream that I can make my art works in draft in my studio and exhibit it on the internet. I dream I can exhibit on 10 online internet galleries simultaneously all over the world. I dream I can offer prints of my drafts to anybody in the world. I dream potential buyers will download my different flyers and brochures in multiple languages. I dream about making my fairy tales in multiple languages and exhibit them online. I dream about showing my storytelling concept - illustrations and writing - online. I dream about building a network of freelance art dealers - served by the internet. My dreams have come through. My apology to the the lady in sable, who has no place to go. The grand openings are disappearing. No more wine drinking with little fingers pointing into the sky, no more gossip showing that the lady in sable is someone with style and knowledge on art. No more piano music covering the gallery owner's enthusiastic efforts to sell multi million canvases to the lady in sable. Do I challenge art traditions? Sure. Indeed I do. Some traditionalists are deeply choked when they hear that my online images in exhibitions on galleries world wide and on my own web site are digital images. Not all are painted. I use the potential of the new technology to the extreme. Why? To the benefit of the buyer - the end user. To the benefit of me. I look upon a computer as a tool. Nothing but a tool. Like a pencil. Like a brush. The tool doesn't make art. The brains and the hearts do. And the future... The world leader in Art Market Information says, that the art market will become 3,5 times larger than the present market due to the internet. The art market will be turned upside down. We have just begun. Hang on. A decade ago no sane computer specialist would have dared predict this development. The internet philosophy was not possible because of lack of common communication standards, because of IBM's dominance, because of....................... It was not thinkable. But fact is that the world wide web popped up. But fact is Microsoft popped up. Windows and Explorer became world standards. Apple lovers and Netscape fans like myself had to give in. It did happen! What does this ongoing revolution mean to art? The artist and the buyer - the end user takes over. The ordure of height culture evaporates. So does the lady in sable. Good painters are no more height culture icons - more like rock stars. Is the well known artist he who exhibits on Guggenheim in New York? Or is it he who has 155905 hits every single day? The influence of museum people, gallery people, curators will diminish. In a decade it has disappeared in its present form. Because this power is based on little or no communication between the artist and the end user. Communication, communication and communication is what the future brings. How? I can't imagine. It's not thinkable. Will major software developers or maybe major search engine companies end up in a battle about setting standards? A battle about dominance. We don't know if. We don't know any company name today - the company probably doesn't exist. One thing is sure. It'll happen in a way nobody can predict. Imagine! What to do? I just have to be open-minded and closely observe new technologies. Investigate them and use them. And Silicon Valley!? Years ago IBM's people in Palo Alto praised my software work to the skies. Now that I'm back in Silicon Valley - as an artist - I hope that you will praise my work to the skies. |
