THE RESTAURANT | DECK 2 ASTRID NONDAL 1958 X NORWAY X OIL ON CANVAS Astrid Nondal’s green and lush landscape paintings are both surreal and romantic. They do not depict any specific location, but are often the same type of landscape, a forest in early summer at its most intense green. Freed from the rules of traditional landscape painting, Nondal’s images are like windows into a strange and different realm; it’s where a secret story is about to unfold. This ambiguous feel creates a sense of tension and gives viewers of her pictures room for contemplation. 36
