Through Jens Fänge's paintings we enter into dreamscapes populated by people, puppets and pictures. They inhabit scenes consisting of distorted rooms with walls and floors in vibrant colours and patterns, and deepperspectives that create a slight feeling of vertigo and disorientation. Fänge pushes the limits of painterly dimensionality by extending his fictional realms beyond the hermetic picture plane and out into real space. Characterized by heavily made-up eyes, thin arched brows and coiffed hair, the androgynous protagonists of many of Fänge s paintings recall certain portraits by German Expressionist painters such as Otto Dix and Elfriede Lohse Wächtler. Drömmarna is a publication in English and Swedish that comprises both newly produced work and earlier paintings from Fänge's extensive body of work. Published in collaboration with Bonniers Konsthall, Stockholm, Sweden, on the occasion of the exhibition Drömmarna in 2018.
