x62 cm. Chr. Cato, [Copenhagen.]
Condition A: minor creases at edges. Paper. Framed.
For an exhibition of “Construction and Housing,” Andersen shows us just that; a superb, architectural
rendition of a room seen via a cut-away view. The artist’s familiarity with the Avant-Garde movements
of Europe is clearly on display, both in the near-Bauhausian back drop of a black and white cityscape
and in the tribute to
de Stijl
in the primary colors of the buildings and the sky. A pure, geometric Art
Deco approach. Danish 72.
