Visitors to Per Adolfsen’s solo show of colored pencil drawings at Nino Meier’s Tribeca space can shrug off the cold temperatures outside and bask in the warmth of the Danish artist’s vividly colored landscapes. Having decided to take his practice out of the studio and into the natural world, Adolfsen explains that he depicts scenes that are based on real places but which offer an exploration of emotion through color and his choice of environment. Inspired by Edvard Munch, Paul Cezanne and Caspar David Friedrich, Adolfsen aims to elicit feeling in his audience while prompting respect for the environment. (On view through Feb 8th).
