Direktør John R. Math, Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery Jupiter, Florida , USA siger følgende om Sven Frøkjær-Jensen som kunstner.
Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery har været så heldig at have den danske kunstner Sven Frøkjær-Jensen som deltager i adskillige af vore gruppeudstillinger. Sven er en ekstraordinær maler, som skaber vidunderligt vibrerende abstrakte værker. Hans malerier udtrykker hans subjektive tanker og dybe føælelser med modig brug af farverne. Ved siden af hans strålende abstrakte værker, har vort galleri været så heldige at se Svens fulde rækkevidde som talentfuld kunstner, da han deltog i vor "Figurelle" udtilling med sin klassiske nøgentegning "Tulla". Sven bidrog også til vor landskabsudstilling med oliemalingen "Vinter", som viser et barskt vinterlandskab fra Danmark.
Vi er rigtig glade for at have Sven som regelmæssig bidragyder til vort kunst galleri, og vi følger hans karriere her fra USA. Sven vil altid være en velkommen kunstner hos Light, Space & Time Online Gallery.

Sven Frøkjær-Jensen has had a very thorough university education as a professionel
historian, which has been a great advantage for him in his work. He started out with
a vivid and strong fascination of the Cobra movement, but through his studies of Byzantine
painting and the art of the native peopleof Bali and Australia, he created for himself
a new language of art, in which he combines the precise knowledge of his
medium with the hightest degree of intense artistic espression. He often
uses unvonventional materials in his works.
Mr. John R. Math director of the Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery Jupiter , Florida , USA says in this juror statement from the Gallery:
Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery has been most fortunate to have the Danish artist Sven Froekjaer-Jensen participating in several of their group art exhibitions. Sven is an extraordinary painter who produces wonderfully vibrant abstracts. His paintings interpret his subjective thoughts and deep feelings with bold splashes of color. Besides his brilliant abstracts, our gallery was fortunate to have observed the full range of Sven’s artistic talent when he participated in our “Figurative” exhibition with his classic nude drawing entitled “Tulla”. Sven also was a contributor in our “Landscape” exhibition with his oil painting “Winter” which depicts the harsh winter landscape of his native Denmark .
Overall, we are quite pleased to have Sven as a regular contributor to our art gallery and we follow his art career from afar. Sven will always be a welcomed artist at Light Space & Time Online Gallery.
