Denmark’s Louisiana Museum hosting display of Niko Pirosmani

The Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Denmark, is hosting the first display in Northern Europe of painter Niko Pirosmani, bringing his works from collections of the Georgian National Museum network to the venue.

Launching on May 4, the exhibition unveiled 48 pieces by the artist.

A film on Pirosmani was screened to mark the opening of the display at the venue, one of the major European Museums that houses thousands of works from 1945 onwards, and artists ranging from Andy Warhol to Yves Klein and Anselm Kiefer.

The exhibition, set to run to August 20, brings the Georgian painter to wider audiences following other displays in Europe over the recent years.

Following the exhibition in Denmark, the Pirosmani display is set to be brought to Switzerland by the Beyeler Fondation, with the showcase running in the country between September 17 - January 28, 2024.
