Description: How significant is Nordic Modernism in terms of contemporary art? That is precisely the question Kunsten and the Canica Art Collection together will address.00Between 1910 and 1960 society underwent radical change: from early industrialisation to the business boom of the post-war years. Both artistically and socially the seeds were sown for the future that is now our present. The exhibition, 'Nordic Modernism? Inventing the Future' cast a spotlight on this crucial period by adopting a new approach to the story of Modernism. In historical terms, Modernism revolved around Paris as an artistic epicentre, from where inspiration flowed out, but not in.00Exhibition: Kunsten, Museum of Modern Art, Aalborg, Denmark (27.01.-02.06.2019).
