Prison Painting Painting

Patrik Entian, born 1966 in Sweden, lives and works in Norway. Painting was always his chosen medium, with a particularly keen interest in landscape painting. Entian’s work is as concerned with existing images from the constant stream of imagery surrounding us on a daily basis, as it is with imagery of the world presented to us by history, and therefore living inside of us all. Over the past 15 years Entian’s work has primarily been a mixture of solo and group exhibitions taking place in Norway and abroad, and public art commissions. He has held solo exhibitions in Leipzig, Berlin, Bergen Kunsthall No 5, and Trondheim Art Museum, as well as creating commissioned work for the Universities of Oslo and Bergen, St Olav’s University Hospital in Trondheim, and Skagerak Energi AS.
