In the exhibition Jane Avril at Oslo Prosjektrom, the artist Maria Norrman shows various works about her relationship with the French dancer Jane Avril (1868-1943). Avril was a friend and model of the artist Toulouse-Lautrec (1864-1901).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In <\/a>2003, Norrman was 15 years old and saw pictures of Jane Avril in a book about Toulouse-Lautrec and read about her life story. Since then, Norrman has been fascinated by Avril\u2019s personality and artistic expression. \u201cIt was like finding a soulmate or a person from a previous life,\u201d says the artist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2004, Maria Norrman has tried in various ways to get close to Avril and her age by creating various artistic works. Norrman has made a documentary in Paris about Avril\u2019s life, recreated Avril\u2019s clothing style and used these as everyday clothes, and staged her dances. One of these dances is shown in a video installation in Oslo Prosjektrom. In addition, a selection of works from these 21 years is shown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the exhibition, Norrman gives a lecture about Jane Avril and artists who have portrayed her over the years, such as Picasso, Toulouse-Lautrec and Norrman herself. This is the first time Norrman\u2019s work on Jane Avril is shown in Norway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
