WE MAKE THINGS HAPPEN The Wintershall Norge Art Collection 2013 Bergen office
The purpose of Wintershall’s art program Wintershall has over a long period supported art, and used it as a source of joy, inspiration and provocation. Good art invites us to really see ourselves – if we dare. In Kassel, our headquarters hometown, Documenta, the world’s most important exhibition of modern and contemporary art takes place every five years, and lasts 100 days. Since the beginning in 1955, it has grown from 135 000 visitors to 860 000 in 2012. This shows the importance and power of art. Our Art Program, as seen in our main office in Norway, consists of 51 different works of art made by 24 different artists. This is art of high quality, showing different and new techniques and modes of expression. Many of these pieces have been specially made for us. We are happy now to include our new Wintershall Bergen office in our growing Art Program. In Bergen we have a variety of 31 pieces of art made by 21 different artists. Our intention is to use the art in an interactive way to contribute to our personal development and to our company’s growth as a whole. We want our art to stimulate our senses, challenge and provoke. At the same time we believe our interaction with art will also confirm and build our identity, and contribute to more courage in our creative and professional hunt for unique values in the process of creating profit and building our company’s culture.

Bleken has been and still is one of the most prominent Norwegian artists over the last forty years. He has had a vast influence on the Norwegian contemporary art scene, and is consider a national master. His works has a wide range of expression, from carefully composed pieces, to intelligent simplicity. And he has developed his language from purely abstract to figurative. Håkon Bleken uses art in a constant quest to find his place in life, which is reflected in his ability to continually reinvent himself as an artist. Bleken’s works are included in many important collections such as the one of the Norwegian National Gallery, Norsk Hydro and Statoil. His art is displayed in St. Olav katolske kirke (Trondheim), Olavshallen, Oslo Konserthus, and in Oslo Central Station. In 2009 a documentary about the life of Håkon Bleken was published, the film premiered at Kosmorama in Trondheim in March 2009. Since his debute in 1951 he has shown single handedly in a variety of Norway’s most important galleries and museums such as National Gallery and Henie Onstad Kunstmuseum.

Dolk Lundgren is a Norwegian artist, reputedly among the ten most popular stencil artists worldwide. He was first introduced via Wooster Collective and Pictures on Walls (POW). It was originally speculated that Dolk, which means dagger or knife in Norwegian, was a pseudonym for Banksy, the famous stencil artist from Bristol. The artist remains anonymous and little is known about his true identity. His works have been exhibited globally in cities such as New York, London, Berlin, Bristol, Oslo, Stavanger and now finally in Bergen.
