ODD NERDRUM

Norwegian figurative painter born 1944 in Helsingborg, Sweeden.

Studied in Oslo at the Art Academy.

Primary influenced by Rembrandt and Caravaggio began with a Neo Baroque style painting large canvasses.

Now, we can see in his works influences by Bruegel, Goya, Munch and Dali among others.

He declared himself as a kitsch-painter.

He is a polemic personality in social and economic points of view. In this moment he is in a very uncomfortable situation accused for tax fraude. And because of that he could not travel to the United States to attend his exhibition.
