Bjarne Melgaard


The 2,000 unique covers of this book, designed by Halvor Bodin, constitute the largest single presentation of Melgaard’s artistic practice. However, since no one will ever see all the books together, this also reflects the experience of working through the material on which the book is based. Melgaard’s body of work is so extensive, multifaceted, and dispersed across numerous exhibitions, publications, and other forms of presentation that achieving a complete overview would be impossible.

From a traditional art historical perspective, a catalogue raisonné is a comprehensive record of an artist’s entire output. If anyone were to attempt such a project for Melgaard in the future, it would likely be the most extensive of its kind in Norwegian art history. So far, however, the artist himself has actively and consciously avoided structuring his artistic production within a hierarchical framework.

A recurring theme in this book is precisely how this approach has been central to Melgaard’s artistic practice—both within individual drawings and paintings and in the way he has produced exhibitions and the relationships between them.
