Alf Petersens gloser og bemærkninger til Atta Troll 1930 - 1938

This page, "Alf Petersens gloser og bemærkninger til Atta Troll" was made by Niels Larsen Stevns, though we don't know exactly when. It’s a sheet filled with long looping lines and marks, so it feels immediate and alive, like it was written in one sitting. I can imagine Stevns sitting alone in his studio, poring over texts, pausing to write down thoughts in the moment, a flurry of activity. He is scribbling away in the heat of the moment. It looks like a mind at work—these words and annotations give a sense of intimacy and insight. The writing itself is so present. It reminds me of Cy Twombly’s scribbled paintings—all this frenetic energy. You see, artists are always talking to each other across time, inspiring each other’s creativity. It's like a big, ongoing conversation. Painting, writing, any form of expression, is not just about making something pretty. It's about digging into the messy, complicated, uncertain aspects of being alive, and allowing yourself to be changed by the process.
