Hollywood had the Brat Pack, Copenhagen has the Art Pak PHOTOS: CLIVE THAIN

WORDS BY MIKE HOFMAN

The Art Pak group, consisting of eight international artist who all live and work in the Copenhagen area, exhibited their works at City Hall on February 18 – an event attended by an estimated 300 people.

Here are seven of the nine contributing artists - the other two were too busy sipping their wine apparently- (from left to right) Patrick Stack, Don Johnson, Iven Gilmore, organiser Ed Kowalski, Eira Pryce, Erik Møller Andersen, Nina Nørgaard Kristiansen and Damon Hope.

The world-famous City Hall pancakes, eagerly enjoyed by all.

Irish painter Patrick Stack came to Denmark for the women, which is also one of his favourite subjects for his paintings (especially, it would appear, their bottoms).

“I’ll put my wine away so I won’t look like an alcoholic,” said Britain’s Tim Jones, who shows Danish street scenes and architecture in his paintings via a new point of view, experimenting with light, shadows and reflections. EN RENAISSA

Always looking at the comic side of things, Iven Gilmore is a British professional illustrator, photo-montage maker, cartoonist, animator, journalist and writer. Oh, and a musician, children’s entertainer and actor.

Among the onlookers was The Copenhagen Post’s very own columnist Frank Theakston, who is no short of fans himself following his appearance in the Copenhagen Theatre, Circle’s Christmas, pantomime ‘Cinderella’. Talking of which, Frank is directing the next CTC production, ‘The Good Doctor’, in April.
