Ole Ertzeid - HISTORY
Ole Ertzeid has been working as a visual artist for almost 40 years. His work has been exhibited in Denmark, across several locations in Spain, and at the Trygve Lie Gallery in Manhattan, where the gallery described his opening as “the best opening sales ever.” He is represented in the Royal Collections and is a member of Norwegian Visual Artists Association.
“My works are created at the intersection between light and dark. Light is the most essential element. It is what creates life in the paintings.”
