original lithograph/linocut | special edition on Velin d’Arches paper | signed
Malene Landgreen is an important representative of concrete art in Denmark. Her compositions captivate through the harmonious balance of geometric shapes, lines, and patterns – and a finely tuned color palette. She is particularly well known for her monumental art in architecture projects for museums, airports, hospitals, and companies.
In these dimensions, her paintings are convincing due to their harmonious context with the respective architecture. At the same time, Malene Landgreen has repeatedly devoted herself to works on paper and special editions, predominantly in the technique of lithography.
