Eskimo is probably an old soul to instil so much maturity in the songs she writes, composes and performs. No need for artifice. The voice, the hands on the guitar, enough to illuminate these familiar landscapes that sparkle in our ears. There remains something rare, of integrity who carries our emotions. We listen to these inner visions, modest, which marry: the antagonisms: metallic sweetness, lunar heat. It is between these words that deploys the gift and talent of the Eskimo.
Peter Brandt’s practice dialogues with various forms of theoretical thinking, such as feminist theory, masculinity studies, trauma theory and art historical material.
A main part of his researches focuses on masculinity in a historical, social and cultural perspective - a special focus point is the negotiation between gender and traumatic experience.
The exhibition The Image As The Witness presents a research work of Peter Brandt, both plastic and sociological. From a traumatizing experience lived by the artist in Rome, Peter Brandt produced a series of works which tend to supply a personal analysis of the notion of trauma and its junction point with the question of the male and the gender in a more general sense.
Peter Brandt studied at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Copenhagen and The Royal University College of Fine Arts, Stockholm.
The exhibition is supported by The Danish Arts Foundation and L.F. Foghts Foundation,
and is under the Labels of Arts and Society - UNESCO MOST, CIPSH and IYGU.
