Per Buk - Painter and Sculptor

Offensively positive and joyful works

Artist Per Buk is described by reviewer Preben Winther as an artist whose works radiate an almost offensive positivity and joie de vivre. His works have an immediate, almost naive charm that invites the audience into a world of freedom and vitality. The abstract birds and fantasy figures bristle and smile, while the joy spreads like ripples in the water and affects the surroundings.

A universe of fable, bird and fantasy characters

Per Buk's artistic work ranges widely - from painting, ink drawings and graphics to ceramic and aluminium sculptures, which often express an idiom inspired by mythical creatures and birds. His works can be found in both private homes and as large-scale decorations in public spaces. A particular example of his work is the sculpture ‘Fugl Føniks,’ which marks the Manor Route on Langeland.

Art and creation in the gallery in Humble

In 2019, Per Buk established himself on Langeland and has since then had his gallery and workshop in Humble, where visitors can experience both the creative process and the finished works up close. The gallery serves as a living space where the creative processes unfold - a great opportunity for art lovers who want to see the creation of art in real time.

Biography and recognition

Per Buk, born in 1969 in Midtfyn, has received several artistic grants over the years and in 2008 was named Svendborg's Visual Artist of the Year. His work has been exhibited both nationally and internationally, including in Japan, Norway, and Sweden, and his art is known for an aesthetic that celebrates spontaneity, freedom and joy.
