On the poster "NY SKOV - RENERE VAND" - NEW
FOREST - PURER WATER I have used a humorous angle, as I have placed a stylized
cheerful frog in a drop of water.
The drop of water and the frog symbolize
both purer drinking water and purer water in the frog's small ponds, etc.
In the motif "NY SKOV - MERE LIV" - NEW FOREST
- MORE LIFE with the red deer I have used the same colors, but here I have
concentrated on showing the proudest animal of the Danish forests in a
new version.
"NY SKOV - MERE TRÆ" - NEW FOREST -
MORE WOOD symbolizes the commmercial utilzation of the forest. The wood
can be used for something. Here for houses and furniture.
On posters in general:
At the request of Dansk Plakatmuseum (Danish
Museum of Poster Art) all new posters are sent to the museum where I now
have one of the largest collections.
After a French visit to Dansk Plakatmuseum's
Cassandra exhibition, I received a letter from Mairie de Paris, Direction
des Affaires Culturelles, Thierry Devynck:
I am deeply impressed by the quality of
the works which you have created and which Peder Stougaard of Dansk Plakatmuseum
in Aarhus showed me. In particular, he showed me a poster which, as far
as I remember, was entitled "Landmandsliv - en kunstart" (Farmer's
Life - An Art Form). The drawing is at once full of charm and permanence.
Would it be possible for Bibiloteque Forney to acquire a collection which
is representative of your work? I would really like to include your work
in our collections, etc., etc.
A collection was subsequently sent to Paris.
Thierry Devynck is now working with the
Danish Ambassador in Paris on launching a promotion of my work.
