N6494.F47.CAD.Brown/Grotta.27Description
In this catalog are strong contemporary works by artists firmly grounded in Scandinavian textile tradition, yet sufficiently confident to pursue textiles as merely a means, not an end. Throughout an unmistakable Scandinavian aesthetic is apparent – influenced by the environment and respectful of material, whether rubber, nylon stockings, hedgehog quills, willow or wool. Artists include: Jane Balsgaard, Birgit Birkkjaer, Helena Hernmarck, Krisín Jónsdóttir frá Munkathverá, Ane Henriksen, Markku Kosonen, Åse Ljones, Kari Lonning, Astrid Lovaas and Kristín Wagle.Context
