Galleri Verso spring 2025
Were happy to announce the calendar for spring 2025 and our exhibitions at the gallery!
The artist and dates are as follows:
Artist Katarina Ekelund, 27 Feb-2 March
Born and raised in Trollhättan (b 1966), the artist now lives and works in the Gerlesborg area of northern
Bohuslän. Initially focused on realistic portraits and landscapes, her artistic journey has transformed into
an exploration of abstraction. Today, her work is characterized by large-scale abstract acrylic paintings,
reflecting a dynamic and evolving creative process. Katarina was educated at Konstfack, University of
Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm, and has exhibited her work in numerous galleries across Sweden
and Europe.
Artist Elisabeth Olszewska, 27-30 of March
Elisabeth (b 1963) has taken on the task of exploring the boundaries of glaze possibilities in her work
with stoneware. Always seeking her own expression, bold impulses, and free experimentation, she has
acquired completely unique experiences. Elisabeth Olszewska has elevated the work with color and
surface to a new level, where layer upon layer of glaze gives the fired stoneware very distinctive textures
and a remarkable depth in the colors. With her studio in Gustavsberg, and various exhibitions she is well
known for her audience.
Artist Kenneth Henckel, 24-27 of April
Kenneth (b 1965) artist living in Copenhagen, has until previously worked with video and photo art,
graphic design, and has exhibited at galleries in Denmark. The artist’s paintings combine thought,
emotions, and reflections on the surrounding world, often infused with a touch of humor. Through his
work, he aim to create pieces that delve deeper, encouraging viewers to explore beyond the surface. The
artist finds it both inspiring and fascinating to discover the personal interpretations and connections
others make with his artwork.
Artist Björn Holm, 24-27 of April
Björn (b 1963) has worked with sculpture in clay for a number of years, and is a member of the artists'
association KB75 on Södermalm in Stockholm. He works usually with a model and performs sketches,
studies of expression, body, shapes, spaces and lines – with clay as the tool. At the center are the human
being, the naked body, posed objects, or still lifes – sculpted with strong expressions. His work are done
of stoneware clay, burnt clay patinated with linseed oil wax and color pigments.
Artist Britta Noresten, 22-25 of May
Britta Noresten (b 1985) is an artist based in Göteborg. She studied at the Florence Academy of Art
Sweden, where she honed her skills in painting techniques. Working primarily with oil paint, her work
explores themes of identity and memory. Through an intuitive approach to painting, Noresten aims to
create pieces that convey emotions and experiences that words cannot fully express. She has recently
been presented at Mall galleries in London, and will also be part of Liljewalchs Vårsalong 2025.
