Teenage Jesus

Released on the occasion of the solo exhibition »Teenage Jesus« at Brenzkirche Stuttgart from 16/9 until 28/10/2012.
The exhibition »Teenage Jesus« shows works in small formats by the Danish artist Alexander Tovborg (*1983) bordered by frames especially manufactured for each work. The works are inspired by Persian and Indian miniature paintings. The frame with its generally complex symbolism and the various implications depending on different cultural backgrounds forms in »Teenage Jesus« an insolvable unit with the image, it »limits chaos« and enables access to Tovborg’s metaphysical figuration in its center.
