She Will Dance Again, Purple
By offering a modern take on old masterpieces, and transforming items typically associated with violence into delicate works of art, Magnus Gjoen challenges our preconceived notions of beauty.
She Will Dance Again, Purple is a continuation of Gjoen's 'Wrap Me Up in Plastic and Make Me Shine' series, which plays with the juxtaposition of old and new. Gjoen explains:
"Making something temporary, like packaging, become part of the artwork itself, gives the traditional painting a modern touch. The bubble wrap almost becomes part of her attire, like something from a Paris Haute Couture show.'
She Will Dance Again, Purple is a giclee print with a silkscreen spot glaze. From a limited edition of 25, the piece is signed and numbered by the artist. This piece is available exclusively at Enter Gallery.
Size (cm): 112 x 85

Shadow float mounting is an option at our website, to give the appearance of an artwork floating within the frame. The mount – an archival foam core – creates depth too, by casting a shadow beneath the artwork. We highly recommend using a float mount when framing artwork with deckled (hand-torn) edges.

About the artist
Formerly a shoe designer for Vivienne Westwood, Magnus Gjoen’s migration to the world of printmaking has been nothing short of spectacular: his highly stylised and effortlessly stylish prints have earned him a reputation as one of the contemporary art world’s most sought after rising stars.
Incorporating elements of renaissance, baroque, street and fine art, Gjoen’s work explores the juxtapositions between life and death, power and fragility, and beauty and destruction, for an aesthetic that is at once opulent and macabre. From human skulls to hand grenades, Gjoen drapes his subjects in sumptuous swathes of Baroque design, creating a dramatic style that demands attention: this is not for the faint of heart.
