Sven Frøkjær-Jensen Now a Light Space & Time Featured Artist

Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery announced today that the Danish artist, Sven Frøkjær-Jensen was chosen for the Gallery's most recent Artist Showcase.

Jupiter, Florida - January 16, 2012 -- Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery announced today that the Danish artist, Sven Frøkjær-Jensen was chosen for the Gallery's most recent Artist Showcase.

Sven Frøkjær-Jensen has had a very thorough university education as a professional historian, which has been a great advantage for him in his love of art. He started out with a vivid and strong fascination of the Cobra art movement, but through his studies of Byzantine paintings and the art of the native people of Bali and Australia, he created for himself a new language of art, in which he combines the precise knowledge of his medium with the highest degree of intense artistic expression. He often uses unconventional materials when he creates his art works.

Sven is an extraordinary talented painter who produces wonderfully vibrant abstracts. His paintings interpret his subjective thoughts and deep feelings with bold splashes of color. Besides his brilliant abstracts, Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery was fortunate to have observed the full range of Sven’s artistic talent when he participated in our past “Figurative” exhibition with his classic nude drawing entitled “Trulla”. Sven also was a contributor in our “Landscape” exhibition with his oil painting “Winter” which strongly depicts the harsh winter landscape of his native Denmark.

“Overall, we are quite pleased to have had Sven as a regular contributor to our art gallery and we follow his art career from afar and we applaud his recent acceptance into the prestigious Danish juried exhibition of Kunstnernes Sommerudstilling. Sven will always be a welcomed artist at the Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery”, said John Math, the gallery’s Director.

Sven lives and works in Slagelse, Denmark and his beautiful artworks can be viewed on his website at http://www.svenfroekjaer.com.

Canadian timber construction initiative attracts support from AAA

A new scheme to encourage construction with timber in Canada has been welcomed by AAA, which claims the scheme could boost returns for forestry investors.

Boston, MA, USA, January 16, 2012 -- A new scheme to encourage construction with timber in Canada has been welcomed by Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA), which claims the scheme could boost returns for forestry investors.

The Atlantic WoodWORKS! Initiative is being launched by the Canadian government, in conjunction with several provinces, including Nova Scotia, Labrador and Newfoundland.

The campaign is intended to extend the already successful WoodWORKS! Scheme to the Atlantic region and could help to bring more cash and investment into the Atlantic region’s forestry industry, claims AAA, which advocates alternative investments, including forestry investment.

Under the Business Development Program, the initiative is receiving CA$500,000 over a two-year period by way of support from the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency.

“This initiative, if successful, will provide a major boost for the forestry industry of the region, with more commercial and public buildings using solid timber in construction projects helping to increase the value of thee timber products”, stated AAA’s analysis partner, Anthony Johnson.

AAA also support the environmental benefits of these kinds of projects, as they help to encourage tree planting and reforestation, which adds to the carbon sequestration properties of a country. Encouraging sustainable forestry management methods is also vital for the safeguarding of forestry industries for generations to come, added Johnson.

Among other schemes, AAA backs forestry plantation schemes in Canada, including the one run by Greenwood Management, a group based in Denmark. The scheme enables investors to buy up sections of land which is then planted with quick-growing sustainable timber stock, which grows in value over a relatively short amount of time. At maturity, the timber is sold off and cash is returned to investors.

This kind of alternative asset class is becoming increasingly popular among those who want to avoid putting their cash in stocks and shares in light of the recent volatility of the equity markets.
