BONNARD AND THE NORDIC COUNTRIES
Bonnard's colorful Parisian street scenes, interiors, Mediterranean garden paintings, and nude portraits inspire audiences worldwide. For the first time in 85 years, Bonnard's works are now being showcased in a comprehensive exhibition in Norway. The exhibition includes a range of Bonnard paintings from leading international museums such as the Musée d'Orsay and Petit Palais in Paris, Musée Bonnard in Le Cannet, National Gallery in Washington, and National museum in Oslo.
In addition, there are works by Nordic contemporary artists who have been inspired by Bonnard. Notable among them are the Norwegian artists as Edvard Munch and Thorvald Erichsen, Ragnar Sandberg from Sweden, and Magnus Enckell from Finland, who have developed their own Nordic colorism since the 1920s.
The exhibitions runs from 14 June until 19 October 2025.
The exhibition is a collaboration with the National Museum in Stockholm and is generously supported by the Sparebankstiftelsen DNB.
