Stephane Simoens Gallery is pleased to announce Jesper Skov Madsen’s second solo exhibition, 'A Bird in the Hand is Worth Two in the Bush'. The collection of new works will be on view from 14 September through 29 October, 2019, with the opening reception on Friday 14 September from 6-8 pm.


Jesper Skov Madsen (°1982) is a contemporary Danish artist whose work explores a balance between the seemingly haphazard nature of his compositions and the meticulous control over his medium. The works presented in A Bird in the Hand is Worth Two in the Bush create a dialogue between sculpture and painting, proving that they are not mutually exclusive. His molded “canvases” of either processed steel, aluminum or brass are layered with sculpted brushstrokes, various mixed media and sealed in a lacquer finish.


These new works play with the dynamics of shape and surface, which create a visual playground of light, texture and form. Each complex visual landscape makes home in a bay of vibrant monochromatic colour. The fluid movement of line and the interplay of organic gesture, stroke, and contour is met with a sense of containment produced by the clean oak framing that pops in contrasting colour at the paintings’ edge. Each work feels at once contradictory and complex, yet effortless and harmonious in nature.


These sculptural paintings are rich in vision, process and craftsmanship. Jesper Skov Madsen demonstrates a keen awareness for his chosen materials and how his artistic practices intersect with light and shadow to create work that feels precisely executed, yet spontaneous and intuitive.
