That's how I first discovered his work. There was a traveling exhibition at the Guggenheim in New York City in 1997 and one in London four years ago. Thanks to the internet, we can see most of his work no matter where we live.Janehttp://www.thebluelantern.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1086588560855961894.post-86393514278934984672012-12-30T21:44:08.240-08:002012-12-30T21:44:08.240-08:00Never heard before of this wonderful painter.

Perhaps the Danish language has been a barrier to interested writers. There hasn't been much available in English until recently.
