This monograph presents Kaldahl’s experimental work in clay sculpture. His compositions and materializations are the result of intuitive improvisations and a direct yet subtle response to material and spatial qualities. Kaldahl has worked with a myriad of spatial themes and ornaments that frequently reappear in his formal vocabulary, and which arise out of a methodical, gradual, and experimental process. This catalogue includes an introductory essay by Brooklyn-based curator, writer, and historian Glenn Adamson. Copenhagen-based writer and curator Jorunn Veiteberg draws connections to contemporary and historical developments with ceramic practices in fine art and craft. Further, Kaldahl’s own voice is present in the publication in a number of highly engaging statements.
MARTIN BODILSEN KALDAHL (*1954) is a ceramic artist based in Copenhagen and has been exhibiting and curating for thirty-five years in Los Angeles, New York, Amsterdam, Saint Petersburg, Milan, Munich, Brussels, Paris, Berlin, London, Oslo, and Copenhagen.
