Kunst af Kirkeby in Aars receives mixed feedback from its visitors, resulting in a neutral overall sentiment. Reviewers specifically mention the presence of three beautiful sculptures that enhance the local area. However, there is some disappointment regarding the architectural design of the brick structures, with one visitor describing a component as an 'ugly brick box' that lacks transparency. The experience is primarily focused on the exterior aesthetic of Per Kirkeby's work rather than an indoor gallery experience. While the art is appreciated, the inaccessible nature of some structures is a point of contention. Overall, it is seen as a quick and quiet stop for those interested in public sculpture.
