In the exhibition entitled Plain Air, Linn Pedersen combines a series of blueprints from her ongoing cyanotype studies entitled Stratus, together with analog medium format photography and new sculptural works. The exhibition forms an ambiguous constellation of manufactured products, bodily movements and atmospheric impressions. Her recently published Artist’s Book Sedimentality (Lord Jim Publishing, 2015), featuring an essay by Sigurd Tenningen, will also be available here.

Plain Air marks the very first exhibition at the recently relocated Entrée. We are looking forward to share the exciting upcoming program with you from our new address. The building's architect is Ole Landmark; the white cube has an especially tall ceiling and enormous window confronting the public space right at the heart of the city of Bergen, Torgallmenningen.
