LONDON.- ‘Christen Købke: Danish Master of Light’ is the first monographic exhibition of paintings by Christen Købke (18101848) ever to be shown outside Denmark. Købke is arguably one of the greatest talents of Denmarks Golden Age, yet a solo exhibition of his work outside his homeland has eluded him until now. This show comprises 48 of Købkes most beautiful and distinguished works spanning a variety of genres: landscape, topography, portraiture and his charmingly oblique depictions of national monuments informed by a decidedly avant-garde sensibility. They present some of the most innovative aspects of his work including outdoor sketching, his fascination with painterly immediacy and his unique treatment of light and atmosphere.
