Description: Nature plays the main role of inspiration in the magnificent works from the Danish design movement around 1900 called Skønvirke of which a selection may be admired in the Treasury at the museum. Especially the pieces in fine porcelain by Fanny Garde and Effie Hegermann-Lindencrone demonstrate a particular fascination of the world of plants. Nature as source of inspiration is still - or perhaps again? - very present among numerous contemporary artists. But does their approach to nature differ from that of the Danish design movement? And how does contemporary art reflect our present understanding of nature? For the exhibition Nature. Traces & Reflections three prominent ceramicists have been invited to interpret and revive the topic: Malene Hartmann Rasmussen, Manuel Canu and Marianne Nielsen. Following their individual and very different artistic strategies, they have entered into a dialogue with a selection of works from the museum collection of works from the Danish design movement. Exhibition: CLAY Keramikmuseet Grimmerhus, Middelfart, Denmark (25.09.2021 ? 13.03.2022).
