註釋
"The Elizabeth Harris Gallery is pleased to exhibit the Danish artist Maja Lisa Engelhardt for the second time. Her exhibition The Third Day is based on a specific theme as were her previous exhibitions in New York; The Second Day 2007, Pillar of a Cloud 2003, Light/Darkness - Way through Landscape 2000, Burning Bush 1996 and Tumulus 1995." "The twenty five paintings titled The Third Day are part of an ambitious project she is undertaking, which consists of a long series of paintings inspired by the book of Genesis from the Old Testament. Accordingly, the world was created in seven days; hence Ms. Engelhardt is creating seven series of paintings that literally have their motifs derived from the text in the Bible, "And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear, and it was so. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And the evening and the morning were the third day." -- Press release.
