Tomorrow is the opening of my solo exhibition ‘any way’ at @valeriusgallery

It’s an exhibition exploring DOUBT. Both as an artistic force (and also a break) but also as a plain human condition.

Opening 17.00-20.00.

I would love to say hi, if you’re there !

UPCOMING:

MARTIN PAASKESEN
ANYWAY

> 22 OCTOBER — 28 NOVEMBER 2026

The exhibition Anyway presents recent works by Martin Paaskesen (*1987, DK), represented by Valerius Gallery since 2018, and marks his sixth exhibition with the gallery.

In this show, Martin Paaskesen explores doubt as both an artistic driving force and an inherent part of being human. Rather than something to overcome, doubt becomes a space for searching: questioning choices, following impulses and allowing a work to develop without knowing where it will lead.

Painting comes before the image. Working directly on raw canvas, Paaskesen builds each surface from hundreds of patches and fragments. Animals, objects and fragments of language emerge intuitively between abstraction and figuration, shaped as much by chance and imperfection as by deliberate choice. Nothing can be undone, only integrated.

Martin Paaskesen is a Danish artist born in Aarhus in 1987, living and working in Copenhagen. Initially trained as an actor at the Danish National School of Performing Arts, he discovered painting during his studies. His work has been exhibited internationally, including at HEART – Herning Museum of Contemporary Art, California Institute of the Arts as well as at numerous international art fairs. He received a Working Grant from Statens Kunstfond – the Danish Arts Foundation – in 2019 and 2026.

My upcoming solo exhibition ‘Any way’ at @valeriusgallery, opens Thursday October 22, 17.00⁠
⁠
In this exhibition I have been knees deep in exploring DOUBT. Both as an artistic driving force and also as an undeniable part of being human. ⁠
Rather than something to overcome, doubt became a space for searching: questioning choices, following impulses and allowing a work to develop without a safety net underneath.⁠
⁠
Everyone is welcome at the opening, and I would love to say hi and have a talk!
