Jan Baker is one of Norway’s greatest contemporary artists! He is known for his masterful storytelling through his paintings. Since his debut at the Autumn Exhibition in Oslo in 1967, he has exhibited his work across the globe. His art frequently incorporates materials like gold and silver, a signature technique he has refined to perfection—making him one of the few in Norway to master this style. His pieces, with their striking metallic accents, capture light in ways that change the entire perception depending on the viewing angle, creating a dynamic, shimmering effect that brings the artwork to life.
Even at 85, Baker continues to evolve as an artist. His ability to merge form and content with freshness and depth showcases a mature and continually innovative creative vision.
