About this book

Kunsten skal ud i samfundet, sagde Poul Gernes. Den skal være den farvestrålende, opløftende, dynamiserende og inspirerende del af vores dagligdag. Den skal være tilstede alle vegne. Kunst skal ikke være noget vi opsøger, men der hvor vi er, er der kunst. Poul Gernes betydning i kunsthistorien synes at være voksende i disse år, men hidtil har opmærksomheden især drejet sig om hans eksperimenterende periode i 1960 erne, som kun udgør en begrænset del af hans livsværk. Alle kender Palads Teatret, og mange kender Herlev Hospital, men få kender resten af farvesymfonien: de 160 udsmykninger, som Poul Gernes og hans familie, medhjælpere og elever udførte over en periode på mere end 30 år. Art must be in society, Poul Gernes said. It must be the colorful, uplifting, dynamic and inspiring part of our daily lives. It must be present everywhere. Art should not be something we seek, but where we are, there is art. Poul Gerne's significance in art history seems to be growing these years, but so far attention has focused on his experimental period in the 1960s, which is only a limited part of his life's work. Everyone knows the Palace Theater, and many know Herlev Hospital, but few know the rest of the color symphony: the 160 decorations that Poul Gernes and his family, assistants and students performed over a period of more than 30 years.
