Copenhagen and Vanguard Europe

While Copenhagen does not figure into traditional histories of modern art in Europe, it was a center of activity for members of Europe’s avant-garde in the 1890s. The formation of Den Frie Udstilling/The Free Exhibition (1891), national ambitions, and the presence of Mette Gad Gauguin, among other factors, placed Copenhagen in a privileged position among European art centers. Exhibition co-curator Dr. Patricia G. Berman will explore the relationships among several artists represented in the Loeb Collection to, and within, these phenomena.
