Lower East

Danish glass

Glasmuseet Ebeltoft are showing “DG15 – 40 years of contemporary glass in Denmark” – an exhibition, which document and show the development of Danish glass over the past 40 years as well as the current trends and the direction of glass today.

Lower East did the graphic design of the book as well as the logo for the exhibition. We went gladly to the opening of the very fine and quite comprehensive exhibition. See our impressions from the day below.

In a forthcoming blog post we will show bits and pieces from the book/catalogue. Stay tuned!

The exhibition will be on show until September 2015.

GOLD at ARoS

For ARoS Aarhus Art Museum Lower East designed a huge catalogue for the exhibition GOLD – TREASURES FROM THE DANISH GOLDEN AGE. 300 pages filled with great photos, gold metal print and texts in Danish and English written by experts in the Golden age a.o. Karina Lykke Grand.

It is a wonderful exhibiton and you can visit it until October 20, 2013. Go there, if you love The Golden Age or go there if you are curious to learn and explore. We got quite crazy about the period during the work with the book, thanks to Lise Pennington and Anne Mette Thomsen from ARoS.

The book can be purchased in the museum shop or from the ARoS online shop for DKK 299.

From the museum website:
“The exhibition shows how the Danish Golden Age artists found new ways with their works, broke with tradition and demonstrated both courage and curiosity in motif and technique. We perhaps know the masterpieces of the Golden Age in the shape of impressive  landscapes, appealing middle-class portraits and unspoiled Italian sights from the artists’ travels abroad. But there are also other and less well known stories of the Golden Age that manifest themselves in the intersection between art, literature, science and politics. So visitors will not only be presented with a large number of the best known works from the Golden Age; the exhibition will also be  showing a considerable number of less familiar, but certainly not less interesting works.”

Edvard Munch Angst / Anxiety at ARoS Aarhus Art Museum

Lower East are very proud of having designed the graphic material for the huge Edvard Munch exhibition that is shown in ARoS Aarhus Art museum. We designed the big exhibition book and a great wall biography in the exhibition room as well as brochures.

The exhibition is amazing and absolutely wonderful – we highly recommend all of you to go and see it. It has been highly appreciated by the press all over the country and the book that contains all the works that is shown was from the start sold in about 200 copies every day.

So we are very happy and proud to be a part of this wonderful event.
