"Shannon Christensen sees Carl Bloch 
Denmark Alter Piece Paintings 
in Person"

THAT will be the title of one of my posts. But I won't have to go to Denmark to see them. The are coming to Utah. Soon. And I am going to see them. Don't know when but it will happen. I have loved his work since I got interested in art. So much so that I did a study (copy) of one of his paintings - Christ

These paintings are LARGE. The photo below gives an idea of the scale that these paintings. I believe all of them are large works. And I don't know that they have ever been outside of Denmark. What a great opportunity!
NOVEMBER 2010 - MAY 2011

Personal Art Insight into Bloch Painting

Since we are talking about Carl Bloch, here is a link to a paper I wrote for a religion class on one of Bloch's paintings. The one below. It's of artsy-smartsy sort of paper so only read if you like that smartsy-pants sort of thing.

Carl Heinrich Bloch: The Master's Hand (November 12, 2010 – May 7, 2011):In November of this year the museum will present an exhibition that has been in development for the last nine years. "Carl Heinrich Bloch: The Master's Hand" will feature the life and work of Carl Heinrich Bloch, the 19th-century Danish artist whose paintings on the life of the Savior are often used by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and greatly loved by its members. The focal point of the exhibition will be five large altar paintings. One of these works is "Christ Healing the Sick at Bethesda," which has become the signature piece of the museum since its acquisition in September 2001. The other four altar paintings will be borrowed from churches in Denmark and Sweden--for the first time since they were originally installed in the late 1800s--to be presented in this remarkable exhibition that will enable visitors to see five out of the eight altarpieces painted by Bloch. The exhibition will also include other religious works, including a study for one of the paintings in the Frederiksborg Castle, as well as portraits, landscapes, genre, and history paintings from many of Denmark's museums.
I got this information here. There are 2 videos about Bloch there as well.
